Offtopic: If you need to run something more complicated than simple 64bit apps or 32bit apps then consider using Boot Camp or VirtualBox for maximum compatibility.Ĭurrently Wine still requires 32-bit code to run 32-bit Windows software, which is a problem for Catalina (which dropped 32-bit code support almost completely), and cannot be solved with a simple recompilation. If you have previously used a 32bit wine prefix (from pre-Catalina times) then make sure you remove/rename your old ~/.wine folder before you run wine64.Īlso be aware that winecfg is gone and attempting to run it will throw an error - use instead wine64 winecfg. You also need to make sure that your wine prefix is 64bit. NOTE: ❗️ wine64 will only work with 64bit executables. Wine64 ~/.wine/drive_c/totalcmd/TOTALCMD64.EXE Now you should be able to run your 64bit PE executables with something like this: # run the tc installer

I checked it with Notepad++ 32bit and with 32bit game Tomb Raider Anniversary Demo and I was able to get both apps working on macOS Catalina. Installing apps with it is a little more complicated than with commercial CrossOver but it is free and worked with 2 apps which I tested. Good news is that it also supports running 32bit windows apps on macOS Catalina. Since July 2020 PlayOnMac ( ) works again on macOS Catalina so you can download it and run windows apps with it which I think is much simpler.

Also, you might want to run: sudo spctl -master-disable to disable gatekeeper if you will see some system alerts about loading app from an unknown developer.

After fixing freetype fonts problem I was able to run notepad++.

It showed some errors about freetype fonts so I installed them with macports and I had to copy them from /opt/X11/lib to /usr/local/lib before wine detected them.

It opened windows console and here I was able to cd to Notepad++ 64 bit directory (downloaded from note that newest version did not work and threw some errors about some dll's).

It compiled after more than 30 minutes.

configure -enable-win64 successfully without errors in terminal run: make

It showed that it couldn't find bison, so I installed it with macports (sudo port install bison).

My steps were more or less something like that: I was able to build Wine 64 bit from source on macOS Catalina and successfully run Notepad++ 64 bit on it.
