They can be created with Disk Copy, burnt to CD or mounted as a normal volume.gz is Gzip Compressed Archive, and Ofter found in a double extension with TAR (e.g.,.TAR.GZ) where the tarball is the archive which is then compressed. Jan 22, 2017  Similarly you can't convert a dmg to an exe, as a Mac application won't run on Windows natively. Which application is it? There may well be a Mac equivalent version. As suggested above, the only option you have if you don't have a Mac version of the app is to run it virtually. This can either be achieved by installing the application into a. Nov 18, 2019 DMG files are for Mac and EXE files are for Windows, so the only way to use a DMG program on Windows is to download its equivalent from the developer (if one exists); there aren't any DMG file to EXE file converters.

EXE is the common filename extension for denoting an executable file (a program) in the OpenVMS, DOS, Microsoft Windows, and OS/2 operating systems.

Someone was mentioning about turning a jar into an app in another thread and that caused a bit of a confusion for me.
I noticed that when I download some 'installable' it is named .dmg and when I execute the application it, it is an .app file. Would I be correct in thinking this similar to .msi and .exe on windoze?

.app is like .exe, but .dmg is a disk image, not an installer. If you double-click a disk image it will be mounted on the desktop like any other readable device. There may be an option to have an application (possibly an installer) run automatically upon mounting a disk image, but that's not the norm.

Why there is DMG in the first place? what is the purpose of treating a software as a device?

I've been running iTunes on Windows 10 for a few years without incident. Today I upgraded from iTunes 12.6.2 to 12.7. Performance on 12.7 is so poor, iTunes is now unusable for me. I completely uninstalled iTunes and all the other iTunes related applications, I deleted my iTunes folder, downloaded the 12.7 executable from Apple and reinstalled 12.7, but performance is still horrible. I store my library on a network attached storage device, but as I said, I have been using iTunes for years on Windows 10 without incident in the same configuration. I always had good performance.


Apple's download site does NOT have the stand-alone iTunes 12.6.2 Windows installer, that version of 12.6.2 you can download from Apple is for MacOS not Windows (it's a DMG file not an .exe). I know there are several sites that cache previous iTunes Windows (.exe) standalone installation files, but I am nervous about using one of those files for fear of modification by hosting site.


Does anyone know where I can source the pervious iTunes Windows stand-along .exe install file? I think version 12.6.2.20 was the previous version prior to 12.7?
