What is winetricks?
Running Windows on your Mac not only allows you to install Visio on Mac but also other Windows only games or programs such as Microsoft Project, Microsoft Access and Microsoft Publisher. In this tutorial, we show you how to run Visio on a Mac. Visio On Mac Installation Tips.
Winetricks is a helper script to download and install various redistributable runtime libraries needed to run some programs in Wine. These may include replacements for components of Wine using closed source libraries.
Note: Although using winetricks may be very useful for getting some programs working in Wine, doing so may limit your ability to get support though WineHQ. In particular, reporting bugs may not be possible if you've replaced parts of Wine with it. See Reporting bugs after you have used Winetricks below.
Note: Some of the packages listed below may not work well with older versions of Wine. As always we recommend you use the latest version of Wine.
Getting winetricks
The script is maintained by Austin English at https://github.com/Winetricks/winetricks. The latest release is available at https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Winetricks/winetricks/master/src/winetricks. Right-click on that link and use 'Save As' to save a fresh copy.
Alternatively you can get winetricks, using the commandline, with the command:
Also, some winetricks 'packages' require a few external tools to be installed, namely: cabextract, unzip, p7zip, wget (or curl). For GUI support, either zenity or kdialog.
Linux users can usually get these via their distribution's package management system.
Using winetricks
Once you've obtained winetricks you can run it simply by typing sh winetricks at the console. You can also use ./winetricks if you chmod +x winetricks first. If run without parameters, winetricks displays a GUI with a list of available packages. If you know the names of the package(s) you wish to install, you can append them to the winetricks command and it will immediately start the installation process. For example,
will install both the corefonts and vcrun6 packages.
Options
Version 20190912 help text:
Tip: As with all Wine commands, winetricks knows about the `WINEPREFIX` environment variable. This is useful for using winetricks with different Wine prefix locations. For example,
installs the mfc40 package in the `~/.winetest` prefix.
Tip: Users with more than one version of Wine on their system (for example, an installed package and an uninstalled Wine built from git) can specify which version winetricks should use. For example,
installs the mfc40 package using the Wine in the ~/wine-git directory.
Reporting bugs after you have used Winetricks
Please do not report bugs if you have used winetricks to install native (ie non Wine) files, as we cannot support Microsoft dlls.
Teamviewer for mac partner uses a newer version 2. Using winetricks to install gecko, mono, and fakeie6 options is acceptable for bug reports - just be sure to mention that's what you've done.
Additionally if you found it necessary to use winetricks for an application please mention it when submitting to the AppDB, mailing lists, and other Wine resources.
Reporting bugs *in* Winetricks
Winetricks has a bug tracking system at https://github.com/Winetricks/winetricks/issues, please use it. If you don't want to get an account there to file a bug, posting on the wine user forum may also eventually get noticed.
How to remove things installed by Winetricks
It's easy to install an entire wineprefix, so by default, winetricks installs each app into its own Wine prefix, and offers an easy way to remove wineprefixes and the menu items they created.
Winetricks does not provide a way to uninstall individual apps or DLLs inside a Wine prefix. This is for several reasons, but mainly because the preferred way to uninstall anything in Wine is to simply install into a fresh Wine prefix. (Yes, it would be nice to have uninstallers for everything, but I don't need it myself. Patches welcome.)
If for some reason, you still don't want to fiddle at all with your Wine prefixes, Wine does offer a built-in Uninstaller program. Like the Windows 'Add/Remove Programs' applet though, it only recognizes programs installed by well-behaved Windows installers that respect the registry, like InstallShield or WISE. There are no guarantees it will work with a program installed by Winetricks or other installers like .msi packages.
Installing winetricks
It's not necessary to install winetricks to use it. You may choose to install winetricks in a global location so you can just type winetricks on the command line. Some Linux distributions include winetricks in their Wine packages, so you don't have to download it separately. You probably do want to follow these steps, if the distributions packaged winetricks version lags behind the current winetricks release (e.g. Debian/Ubuntu users).
To download and install your own copy of winetricks, you can install it manually like this:
To download and install the (separate) BASH completion script for winetricks:

Dear,
i had been searching and tried many times form various sources to install and make Wine on Mac OSX, but every time i failed. i am not too much of a geek, but thing is i have not also found a proper article how to install wine on mac which explains the complete process in an easy way, i once had almost had it installed but when i tried to install softwares like MSN Live messenger, or yahoo messenger or other softwares i know something had went wrong and i was not able to runt he programs on my wine. i know you guys a good and everyday i love to read your articles and become a so called 'GEEK' lol. but i really need wine on my mac as i have windows installed thru parallels and partition also they work very fine but thing is it need lot of resources (RAM and memory) to run which makes both Mac as well as Windows slower. and i cannot enjoy using either of them. so if you guys can pin point me in right direction if you have worked on it before or maybe make a new article with proper and easy to understand instructions it would be great!!!
jazkohli, have you tried here http://www.winehq.org/

But I'll ask the simplest question. Why WINE?
It might sound like a little investment, but do it. Either dual-boot your Mac with Windows, or install Windows in a VM, such as Parallels Desktop (google it). Works great in both cases. EDIT: Just re-read your post. Which softwares are you trying to run? Windows Live Messenger should have a Mac version, and if not, you can use an alternative, such as Pidgin, which has a Mac version.
I've made a mapping Djay Pro to work with xdj rx. I've managed to mapp as much as i could, the only thing that i didn't manage to mapp was the jog led's and the level vu meters of the channels and the master level.I hope u like this mapping. Dec 12, 2017 djay Pro 2 arrives on Mac, introducing artificially intelligent DJ mixing via Spotify, beat-matched photo visualization, and a modernized user interface to mix music like never before. How to map roll on djay pro 2 and vestax spin 1 2. If you have a MIDI controller that is currently not natively supported by djay Pro, you can still use it with djay Pro’s easy-to-use MIDI Learn feature. Simply connect the MIDI controller to your Mac, and follow the on-screen instructions to map the hardware controls to functions in djay Pro. This is a mapping of the NUMARK DJ2GO2 for Djay Pro:mac/iOS fully matching the native Serato mapping! Please note it's for DJ2GO2 (version 2), it hasn't been tested with DJ2GO (version 1). It was created by Jay Neural for DJ.MG (DJ Mega Gear). It's mapped as close as possible to the layout printed on the hardware and as close possible to how it works with Serato.
If you need full utilization of resources, install Windows using Boot Camp, and dual boot your Mac with Windows.
thanks guys, i gave up wine and i tried Parallels desktop 7 but then finally resorted to VMWare Fusion, much better software. i installed windows xp on it just keep windows lighter, and stop it using so much of my resources when using both at same time.
@ hatryst thanks but the softwares which you are talking about like live messenger for MAC is a pieces of crap, it keeps crashing, doesn't support offline messageing, and many other cool features are missing, more over i have better alternative to live messenger like trillian or palringo. they are all free and available in appstore. more over only for these software i won't be installing windows, its mostly my work softwares like for accounting or managing warehousing etc. they all do not have MAC versions, and moreover in my office i am the only one with MAC, so can't change to any other alternative also.
Thanks anyways guys, but installing wine is really very hard, and i think its not worth your time, better resort to other alternatives like Parallels desktop or VMWare Fusion, for some reason i prefer VMWare Fusion as parallels desktop need to be updated regularly with each MAC major software update. happened to me when i updated from Snow Leopard to Lion and mind it it was paid update from parallels desktop, but then i found VMWare and it did not needed to be purchased again when i updated from Lion to Mountain Lion.
