Transferring files Mac OS X 10.5.6

Post by jakeiam »

Hey, I'm trying to transfer a file from my Mac desktop to my wine program folder. The situation is that I downloaded a setup .exe to my Mac desktop and was able to use it to install my program with wine. Now I need to update the software and all I have available is the .exe for the program itself to replace in the program folder.

basically, i need to replace

wine "c:\program files\myprogram\oldmyprogram.exe"

with

user/Desktop/newmyprogram.exe

Thanks,
Mike (not Jake)

So open up ~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files in finder and replace it.

I know my question came from amateur hour (requiring a simple answer), but I do appreciate the help.

Cheers
