wine explorer for graphical file manager instead of console 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:

These patches start the macOS ARM64 bring-up for Wine and lay the groundwork for future strides in this area.I was able to build Wine 64 bit from source on macOS Catalina and successfully run Notepad++ 64 bit on it. The current Wine ARM support is outlined via this Wiki page. Apple macOS on ARM64 has a larger page size, macOS is not mapping anything into the lower 4GB of the address space, memory mappings can't be writable and executable at the same time, and other architectural differences.īut for those wanting to run x86_64 Windows games/applications on macOS ARM64, that support still isn't currently in the scope of this work. While for years Wine has worked on 64-bit ARM support in the context of Windows RT, the possibility of running Wine on Android or ARM-powered Chromebooks, and other use-cases, Wine for macOS on ARM64 comes with its own set of challenges. Wine developer Martin Storsjo has been experimenting with the macOS + ARM64 support and has got the code along far enough that 'small test executables' can run on the patched copy of Wine.

Over the months ahead with Apple preparing future desktops/laptops with their in-house Apple silicon built on the ARM 64-bit architecture, Wine developers are beginning to eye how to support these future 64-bit ARM systems with macOS Big Sur.
