absolute dummie here - How to open Steam

Post by pedalen »

Hi.
I have installed steam through Wine, and it worked fine. But now when I try to open it again, I don't know how. What should I type in? I tried "Wine Steam.exe" but that did nothing. I've looked all over but I couldn't find the answer.

You can’t just type that, you need to give wine the path to where Steam is installed say with anything tht you install into wine.
If you can’t rememeber the folder location here is a more general example.

Code: Select all

wine explorer
The above will open explorer like in Windows now you able to navigate to where ever you installed your program/game too.

Then next time you can directly launch the program you want to make an shortcut check the macOS wiki sections.
