Evening all, might be moving to a mac for temporary usage and wondering how i can use a program which i have on my laptop on the mac air.

Rather than parallel with window good another program like wine hq work? That way i dont need full windows to run the 1 program in question?

Thanks
 
What programme are you wanting to run on your Mac?

Both VMware Fusion and Parallels will do this however you'd have to have a VM running. They both have an option where the Windows only programme will be presented as a normal app within macOS.

Programe for work, called wintex for intruder alarms

With vmware do i need a copy of windows?
 
Also be aware if you have a new M1 chipped mac then you can only run Windows for Arm under Parallels (and not at all on vmware) and that means your Windows app needs to support Windows for Arm too.
