[QUOTE="rman, post: 202044, member: 23"] To make it as simple as possible. In must cases a .exe file is a window binary executable file. The file is all of the requirements to run a windows pc (libraries and system calls, etc.). Whereas on an Apple system the libraries and the system calls are different. So to get the .exe program to work on an Apple system, the code needs to be recompiled and some of the system calls maybe need to be changed. [/QUOTE]
