Hello folks,

five years have passed since the last discussion. If there is no legal way to support this feature in Wine then I guess there is no point to keep this bug report open -> WONTFIX?

Another point to consider: How does Silverlight 5.x integrate with the current incarnation of 'PlayReady' client/server technology?

Developing Applications using PlayReady on Windows 7

Some PlayReady Partners provide SDKs to run PlayReady on Windows 7 and Mac OS, based on Electron, Xamarin, or other technologies. You can contact these PlayReady Partners directly for more information.

Silverlight is a deprecated application framework running on Windows 7 and Mac OS that includes a fully functional PlayReady Client. It runs in browsers with limitations, and can also run out of browsers to provide standalone apps on Windows 7 and Mac OS.

Silverlight 5.x is still mentioned but it's more like a dead horse.

$ sha1sum Silverlight.exe

$ du -sh Silverlight.exe
6.7M Silverlight.exe

$ wine --version
wine-6.0-202-gc7de9f2daa8
