This category uses the Copy a Folder Inside Installer option discussed in the instructions you linked to. With apps like AutoStakkert 2 the Wine wrapping steps are very easy, quick, and the result seems to work very well in Mac OS X High Sierra. The first category is the type of Windows app that does NOT need to run a setup.exe program to install it. There are two different categories of applications that I have wrapped in Wine to run on my MacBook Pro.įirst Category: Drag and drop apps that do NOT require a Windows installation. If I can move a few of my radio programming apps and AP apps over to my MBP via Wine, then I think that will be better. Aaarghhh!!!!!! Every darn time I have Win 10 updates, it blows away my working drivers for serial cables and replaces them with newer ones which won't work. You can supposedly turn them off, but MS always finds a way, sooner or later, to re-activate them. The main issue with running Boot Camp on the Mac Mini is Win 10 and its weekly BS updates. Therefore, I'm not in favor of installing Boot Camp and Win 10 on my MacBook Pro. I haven't dared to update the Mac OS for fear of messing something up. Whichever Mac OS X was current at the time got installed, then Boot Camp, then Win 10. However, the Mac Mini I used for Boot Camp and the duel Mac OS X and Windows 10 installation is now stuck at El Capitan level, I think. I agree that it is probably best to use Boot Camp, install it once and be done with all of this. Hopefully I address all of your questions below. But I've given enough money to MicroSoft over the years. I guess I could buy a full-install copy of Windows-10, use Bootcamp and be done with it. Much better to have programs written to run natively on the OS of choice. Your success has encouraged me to try getting them running again. DSS on the Windows XP machine is tolerable regarding speed. Right now the only stacking program I have for the Mac is PixInsight, which I'm just getting up to speed in using. While I could run these on my old Windows XP machine (Core2 Duo), it is abysmally slow compared to my MacBook Pro (Retina, mid-2012): I guess I need to go back to the tutorial and do the same for the Windows programs I want to use: But it's good news you got those programs to work with High Sierra. I see now that AutoStakkert!-2 and Registax-6 also are inoperative. I was wondering why the Virtual Moon Atlas that was located in the Dock no longer worked. But the other programs ran fine until (I guess) upgrading to OSX - High Sierra. When I allowed the upgrade, the program no longer worked in Wineskin. Photoshop Elements 2.0 (very old 2002 Windows version) used to run until I responded to the program offering an upgrade to PSE online. Up to the latest OSX upgrade my Wineskin applications all ran - AutoStakkert!-2, Registax-6 and Virtual Moon Atlas. I must have been running the 32-bit version of AutoStakkert!-2. In answer to your questions above, I'm using High Sierra 10.13.2. Or is there now an updated tutorial on the AutoStakkert! website? I found the directions were a bit different from what I found in the actual process.Did you just follow the directions in the link I had supplied?.But you've shown that the Wineskin does run on the latest Mac OSX. I saw your inquiry earlier, but didn't have opportunity to reply due to other obligations. Jack, that's great news (in your other posts below).
