When you download Wine on your Mac, it acts as a compatibility layer between Windows applications and your computer. A few of these include ACDSee, Command and Conquer, and Microsoft Whiteboard. Wine also comes with a library of Windows applications that run smoothly on other operating systems with its help. Unlike launching a virtual machine or emulator, this software is easy to use, and one of the few programs that don't require a Windows license to run apps. It’s a free and open-source software program that lets you run Windows-only applications on your Mac OS without any trouble.

If you’ve come across any such application that you’d like to run on your computer, Wine could help.

However, there remain some applications that don’t come with a Mac version.

Nowadays, many applications designed for Windows have their Mac counterparts.
