198 forum posts | You can always run it in a virtual machine on your Mac I run a Windows 10 virtual machine under VirtualBox for apps that have no alternative on a Mac - Visio (no Mac version or real equivilent) and Golden Records (Archery records system - Windows only) being 2 of them. VirtualBox is free from Oracle, and the Windows 10 license I bought second hand on Ebay for about £2.00 from a decomissioned machine. |
