You do? Great. You do you. For the rest of humanity, CrossOver is the easiest way to run many Microsoft applications on your Mac without a clunky Windows emulator. (Seriously, have you tried emulators? Do you like how they run on your Mac?) CrossOver works differently. It's not an emulator. It does the work of translating Windows commands into Mac commands so that you can run Windows software as if it were designed native to Mac.</p> <p>CrossOver works with all kinds of software - productivity software, utility programs, and games - all with one application.</p> <p>Faster. Better experience. No license.

I own an iMac which I love dearly, only problem is that I've always had to use bootcamp to play Guild Wars, which on Windows 7, does not work amazingly well, especially considering the sound drivers had issues. I just installed Guild Wars using CrossOver Games and it works amazingly, I did my research and found tons of people complaining that the game didn't full screen properly, that confused me since it went into full screen with no borders or title bars or anything, the graphics look great and the connection works perfectly." <br><br> - Philip D.</div><div class="testimonial-box">"Crossover Office

We're misfits. But mostly, we're software liberators. And we're very, very good at what we do. We have to be. Lots of developers work with open source, but only a tiny fraction of those are good enough to get software that was designed for one platform to work on another one. We invented CrossOver software - a unique approach to cross-platform compatibility that does not require dual-boot or another OS license. We launched PortJump to help app and game developers broaden their market beyond Windows® users. And we launched ExecMode to help organizations solve really ugly technical challenges.</p> </div> </div> <div class="row my-3"> <div class="col-6"> <span class="bold">Your OS Preference</span> <span class="osSwitch"> <span class="os_Mac"> <span class="btn-group dropup cursor"> <span class="dropdown-toggle" id="osSwitchBotMac" data-bs-toggle="dropdown"> <i class="fa-brands fa-apple"></i> Mac </span> <span class="dropdown-menu" aria-labelledby="osSwitchBotMac"> <a href="#cxlinux" class="dropdown-item"><i class="fa-brands fa-linux"></i> Linux</a> </span> </span> </span> <span class="os_Linux noshow"> <span class="btn-group dropup cursor"> <span class="dropdown-toggle cursor" id="osSwitchBotLin" data-bs-toggle="dropdown"> <i class="fa-brands fa-linux"></i> Linux </span> <span class="dropdown-menu" aria-labelledby="osSwitchBotLin"> <a href="#cxmac" class="dropdown-item"><i class="fa-brands fa-apple"></i> Mac</a> </span> </span> </span> </span> </div> <div class="col-6 text-end"> <span class="btn-group dropup cursor"> <span class="dropdown-toggle" id="langSwitch" data-bs-toggle="dropdown"> <i class="fa-duotone fa-language"></i> <span class="bold">Language</span> </span> <span class="dropdown-menu" aria-labelledby="langSwitch"> <a href="#" class="dropdown-item btn-gourl" data-gourl="?__setLang=en"><i class="fa-duotone fa-globe"></i> English</a> <a href="#" class="dropdown-item btn-gourl" data-gourl="?__setLang=zh-cn"><i class="fa-duotone fa-globe"></i> 简体中文</a> <a href="#" class="dropdown-item btn-gourl" data-gourl="?__setLang=zh-tw"><i class="fa-duotone fa-globe"></i> 正體中文</a> </span> </span> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div id="social-container" class="container-fluid"> <div class="row"> <div class="text-center col-12"> <a rel="me" href="https://bsky.app/profile/codeweavers.com" target="_blank" title="BlueSky"><i class="fa-brands fa-bluesky fa-fw"></i></a> <a rel="me" href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/codeweavers" target="_blank" title="LinkedIn"><i class="fa-brands fa-linkedin fa-fw"></i></a> <a rel="me" href="https://www.facebook.com/codeweavers" target="_blank" title="Facebook"><i class="fa-brands fa-facebook-square fa-fw"></i></a> <a rel="me" href="https://x.com/codeweavers" target="_blank" title="X (Twitter)"><i class="fa-brands fa-square-x-twitter fa-fw"></i></a> <a rel="me" href="https://www.instagram.com/codeweavers/" target="_blank" title="Instagram"><i class="fa-brands fa-instagram fa-fw"></i></a> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/user/codeweavers?feature=mhee" target="_blank" title="YouTube"><i class="fa-brands fa-youtube-square fa-fw"></i></a> <a href="https://discord.gg/BSdCNQhs9u" target="_blank" title="Discord"><i class="fa-brands fa-discord fa-fw"></i></a> </div> </div> </div> <div id="copyright" class="container-fluid"> <div class="row"> <div class="text-center col-12"> Copyright © 1999-2024 All Rights Reserved · <a href="/privacy-policy">Privacy Policy</a> · <a href="/code-of-conduct">Code of Conduct</a> </div> </div> </div> <!-- END FOOTER --> <!-- START GDPR/ePR ALERT --> <div id="GDPR-alert"> <div class="container-fluid"> <div class="row"> <div class="col-sm-6 col-md-8 py-4 ps-3"> <i class="fa-duotone fa-info-circle"></i> CodeWeavers or its third-party tools process personal data (e.g. browsing data or IP addresses) and use cookies or other identifiers, which are necessary for its functioning and required to achieve the purposes illustrated in our <a href="/privacy-policy">Privacy Policy</a>.
