Install macOS Catalina on VirtualBox on Windows PC will essentially work straightforward similar to a Mac, and devotes most of your Windows power and its graphics card to running Catalina. How much ever you allocate, it will get more thirsty of power. My terminal is using zsh(The latest macOS Catalina default terminal is use zsh), so I need a a new terminal window and add the following to file./zshrc, if your terminal is not zsh, please add in file./bashprofile.
Installing WineHQ packages
Official WineHQ packages of the development and stable branches are available for macOS 10.8 to 10.14 (Wine won't work on macOS Catalina 10.15). Please test these packages and report any bugs at http://bugs.winehq.org.
Debian: $ sudo apt-get install libunwind8 Redhat: $ yum install libunwind $ yum install libicu Ubuntu: $ sudo apt-get install libunwind8 # install the libicu library based on the Ubuntu version $ sudo apt-get install libicu52 # for 14.x $ sudo apt-get install libicu55 # for 16.x $ sudo apt-get install libicu57 # for 17.x $ sudo apt-get install libicu60 # for 18.x $ sudo apt-get install.
Prerequisites:
- XQuartz >= 2.7.7
- Gatekeeper must not be set to block unsigned packages.
Installing:
Install Catalina From Terminals
Both .pkg files and tarball archives are available at https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/macosx/download.html.
Installing from a .pkg file is recommended for inexperienced users.
To install from a .pkg file, double-click on the package, and the usual macOS installer wizard should open. The process should be self-explanatory. It is possible to install the package either for all users (needs administrator privileges), or just for your current user. After the installation is finished, you should find an entry 'Wine Staging' or 'Wine Devel' in your Launchpad. By clicking on it, a new Terminal window opens with a short introduction into some important wine commands. You can now directly start wine/winecfg/... from the Terminal, as the PATH variable is set correctly. For user convenience, the package also associates itself with all *.exe files, which means you can run windows executables just by double-clicking on them.
To install from a tarball archive, simply unpack it into any directory. There is no need to set DYLD_* environment variables; all paths are relative, so it should work as long as the directory structure is preserved (you can skip the /usr prefix though using --strip-components 1).

Uninstalling Wine
- Remove the source tree and binaries.
Using Homebrew:
Using MacPorts, uninstall the wine package you previously installed:
Replace wine with wine-devel if you installed the development version.
Otherwise and if you used `sudo make install`, revert it:
Then simply delete your local Wine source code directory:
- Clean-up pseudo C: drive and registry entries as well as all programs installed to C:
- Check the hidden directory `$HOME/.local/` where Wine stores some desktop menu entries and icon files as it interoperates with the X.Org Foundation and the Free Desktop.
Note: Files in this directory are unused on macOS unless you use a UNIX window manager and other X11 applications instead of the native MacOS apps.
Third Party Versions
Third party versions of Wine, such as Wineskin, Winebottler, and PlayOnMac, are not supported by WineHQ. If you are using one of those products, please retest in plain Wine before filing bugs, submitting AppDB test reports, or asking for help on the forum or in IRC.
