Hi,
At the beginning I want to write that Kairatune is a great instrument. Thank you for creating it!

Unfortunately, when used on WINE it's difficult because it probably contains some workarounds for old WINE releases that currently cause crashes. It would be nice to delete them in future releases.

There is simple way to workaround - install wine-staging and make wine don't introduce itself.

Hi,

The Windows version of Kairatune will get an update at some point. Can't make any promises for the schedule, but hopefully issues with WINE gets solved by simply dropping any outdated workarounds and improving compatibility with current Windows versions.

Thanks for the heads up and workaround!
