The test results you have selected are very old and may not represent the current state of Wine.
Selected Test Results (selected in 'Test Results' table below)
What works
Visual Basic Express 2010 installs with a pop-up dialog box showing up during installation saying unknown error. Most of the helper applications do install however when installation completes, there is an error stating that two of the programs did not install.
What does not
The visual basic 2010 express ".exe" file is there however when run a dialog box with unknown error pops up.
What was not tested
All other files that where installed during the Visual Basic install where not tested.
Multiple Microsoft development tools online/web installers fail to skip "$shtdwn$.req" with FILE_ATTRIBUTE_HIDDEN (Visual Studio Express Editions, .NET Framework 3.0)

Try to enable subpixel font smoothing using 'winetricks':
$ bash winetricks fontsmooth=rgb
Visual Studio 2010 seems to freeze on startup
Actually it's not a freeze but a popup/dialog hidden behind the splash screen.
You press "ENTER" (while keeping the splash in focus) to continue.

regsvr32

Has anyone tried regsvr32 on "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\Common7\IDE\dte80a.olb", as well as other files related to MSEnv? That was my first thought upon seeing the test results.
Plain compiler works fine

If the executables (and headers and libs) are copied out from an existing installation (on real windows), the plain compiler (cl.exe and link.exe) work just fine, even if the installer (and perhaps IDE) don't work.
