Currently Wine still requires 32-bit code to run 32-bit Windows software, which is a problem for Catalina (which dropped 32-bit code support almost completely), and cannot be solved with a simple recompilation.It's only possible to use Wine for some 64-bit Windows software. I am new with mac and I am trying to install Cubase 5 using Winebottler. This program runs well on my PC, but since I moved to mac, I want to install it. I was trying to do that using Winebottler, but it keeps saying 'Prefix reation exited with error' and 'you find a logfile to help with debugging on your desktop'.

Please allow installation to complete without putting your Mac to sleep or closing its lid. Your Mac might restart, show a progress bar, or show a blank screen several times as it installs both macOS and related updates to your Mac firmware.
