Is there a way to open .exe files on a Macbook Air M1? Wine bottle and Parallels won't work and Boot Camp is not supported.

Why do certain windows .exe files not run on MacOS Ventura using the latest version of Wineskin? Hello, I have an M2 MacBook Air that runs MacOS Ventura. I downloaded Wineskin Winery to create application bundles to run 32 bit applications as WineBottler will not work on MacOS Ventura. While I did get some 32 bit .exe Windows files to run, some other 32 bit .exe files simply would not run and are seemingly not readable via Wineskin or all other equivalents of Wineskin that are compatible with MacOS Ventura. Why is this? Are there any Winetricks or commands that need to be executed while creating the application bundle? If so, what are they? I'd appreciate it if anyone could help me out with this. Thanks.

Hello!

.EXE is a Windows format and isn't supported on Mac.

Check with the app developer to see if they offer a Mac version of the app.
