hello!

1) in case of win95/98/me we load the content of %windir%/user.dat
registry file under HKEY_USERS/.DEFAULT key. the real windows doesn't do
it - they load under HKEY_USERS key. on my system there're two keys in
mentioned user.dat file which do not belong under HKEY_USERS/.DEFAULT,
so probably wine doesn't handle this correctly. more concrete:

[Software\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\Telephony]
@=""

[Software\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\Telephony\\HandoffPriorities]
"RequestMakeCall"="DIALER.EXE"                                                  

[.DEFAULT\\Identities]                                                          
... all other keys are under .DEFAULT

is there some reason why we can't load under HKEY_USERS like real
windows does? should i go for it?

2) i compared the output of regedit.exe under wine and windows. wine
moves the whole content of HKEY_USERS/.DEFAULT branch to
HKEY_USERS/%username% location. the HKEY_USERS/.DEFAULT remains empty
then. is this correct? maybe they both should contain the same values or
what...or is there some kind of "redirection" to HKEY_USERS/%username%
when application asks for something under HKEY_USERS/.DEFAULT?

thanks,
martin
