    Hi, i have a problem with some installers .exe in mac osx

    they runs ok but sometimes the default installation folder is "drive_c/Program Files/"

    i think that "drive_c" is virtual, then i run installer and say works perfectly but i cant go to drive_c :S i cant find it on folders because this installer cant change installation folder :(

    then when i finish winebottler, drive_c missing?

    Mac OSX 10.10.5 Yosemite

    Winebottler latest update


    thanks :)

    On mac, Wine is ok for exe that doesnt need installations, like keygens. Wine can't fully handle a complex installation. When I feel the need for a win software that has an installation, I use Parallel desktop: it is a real windows enviroment, your mac becames a pc
