Launching a Windows .exe File

Some programs are meant to be run without being installed on your computer.

1. Create a Bottle

To run an executable in CrossOver, you'll first need to create a bottle. From CrossOver's main menu, go to Bottle > New Bottle.

Enter a name for the bottle, select a bottle type, and click Create.

2. Access Run Command

Select the bottle you just created from the Bottles list in the left sidebar, and then click Run Command.

3. Select a File to Run

Click Browse, and locate the .exe file you want to run.

Once the file is selected, click Open to run the file.

4. Run Selected File

Click Run to launch the selected file.

You can also use the Run Command window to create a launcher icon for your program.
