• How to open .exe on a Mac?

  I'm a first time developer tries to use WebWorks to develop applications on a Mac Playbook.  Right now I have successfully launched the Playbook Simulator using VMware Fusion and was able to get my IP address.  The next step is to launch the application "Hello World", such as discussed in this Webinar: http://webcast.streamlogics.com/audience/auditorium/index.asp

  Now I'm stuck to launch the bbwp.exe file, because apparently the Macs can't open exe files.  Looks like you need a command prompt to navigate to the WebWorks SDK installation folder. (As discussed at 43:31 in the above Webinar)

  Someone at - it a way to solve this step, where there is a tool available on a Mac command line?

  Yes, you should be comfortable using the Terminal on your Mac. When you 'cd' in the folder bbwp (one with, among other things, the bbwp and bbwp.exe) you run bbwp by the following command:

  . / bbwp (location of zip archive)

  To make it easier, just type:

  . / bbwp and then from the Finder just drag your file zip on the Terminal window and you find the address of the location of the zip for you.

• How to open exe as exe files?

  Well, this shouldn't be a hard question because I've done a bit silly and simple.

  I watched an exe file and I said, Hey wouldn't it be cool if I open an exe with .txt and looked at the source code for this game? I went to properties and changed the open a txt. of course, I couldn't see the source code, but what was really weird was the fact that now all my exe files open as txts. I thought, if I put exes to be opened so that, no matter what either their suppose to be open as, I'd be well. However, after some research, I realized it is actually a specific program that opens the exe. What should I do now? I will never be able to open exe again without having to reset windows?

  Hello

  Hello

  1. You did changes to the computer before the show?
  2. What version of web browser work?

  You can temporarily disable the antivirus software, and then try to install programs, and also try to open .exe files to check if that helps.

  Check the link for more information.

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/disable-antivirus-software

  Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

  I hope this helps!
