Wine works, because it doesn't cover many modern APIs, I would assess.
New Microsoft under Satya has a different stance on anything WinRT related, or even newer Win32/COM APIs since Windows 8.
Also .NET Framework is the Python 2 of .NET, the breaking changes are a reason there are still new projects being done in .NET Framework 4.8.x.
You can desugar all the modern stuff to windows api with first party DLLs
First party DLLs have copyright.
No, these are specifically ‘redistributables’.
In the rare case they aren’t, you just require the user to obtain it, wink and nod.
