I installed a very simple 64-bit windows program using the 'Install a non-listed program' option. For the virtual drive, I selected the '64-bits Windows Installation' option. This works perfectly and I am able to successfully install the program. The program installer has an option to 'launch now' once the install is done, and if I select this option the program starts and runs perfectly.
I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling (deleting the virtual drive each time) several times with the same result. This seems like a bug since I choose the '64-bits Windows Installation' option during installation. Why does it say I have a 32-bit virtual drive? The only way I can get my 'FastLogEntry.exe' program to work now is to remove it and reinstall it / select the 'launch now' option from the program's installer. Once I exit the program, it will not run again and throws the above error.
Any assistance with this would be appreciated. I am very happy that the program seems to work perfectly in POM and hope there is a solution or work-around for this error. I did not expect that I would be able to run this 64 bit windows program on an M1 Mac, so this was a nice surprise - well done POM team!
Update: I ran POM from Terminal and selected the option to use a different version of Wine. When it comes to the screen to select the version of Wine, the only available option is 'System', and in Terminal I see this:
I verified that the path does exist, but there is nothing in the darwin-x86 folder. OK, do I need to install a different version of Wine? As stated in my first post, the Windows program that I want to run does work using whatever the 'system' version of Wine is, but only during the install process. Once the install is complete, I get an error when trying to run it.
After some reading and google searching, I figured out that this version of POM only supports the 'System' version of wine, which is 32-bit. Also the ability to install different versions of wine is broken. Hopefully this is fixed in a future release!
