PlayOnMac has been a lifesaver for me on several occasions. I'm a Mac user who occasionally needs to run Windows applications that aren't available natively. PlayOnMac makes this process surprisingly straightforward. https://www.crackshere.com/

NOT ARM64 (Apple Silicon/M1) native. An ARM64 native version of WINE exists, but it is very preliminary. As such, what you get is an emulator for Windows apps running inside an emulator, Rosetta 2, meaning it's slow. It's unlikely a finished public version of ARM64 WINE will be released until Apple kills Rosetta 2. Therefore, look elsewhere if you can. I'm successfully using Parallels with ARM Windows 11 Preview. It's x86 emulator is quite reasonable.

Beware of the PlayOnMac version 4.4.1 because Avast security detected malware inside.
