        I haven’t tested those myself, but wine has excellent 32 bit compatibility in general. If it’s on the list at wine hq, then it probably works

        Yes, if you’re on 32-bit hardware. It’s unlikely you are. Backwards compatible binary execution should be fine.

          I have a 32 bit machine that is still in service for this task and some others, but I’d rather run it on a modern machine (m1 mac)

      The problem is bureaucratic: Using them with Wine is not the manufacturers intent, so it may break for a while and theres nothing the manufacturer will do to fix it. The companies of the users often don’t dare rely on this. It’s also why some companies require to use redhat or ubuntu for a distro, because they don’t dare running anything without a support contract. They think that way there’s someone external to blame, call for help or sue, if things break. I’m not a fan of this, but encountered it a few times on different jobs. At my current job one of our clients has this with redhat and tbh they actually had to call redhat support twice this year, because their server got messed up during upgrades.

      Big files? No issues? They have problems on Win, I can’t imagine on Wine (that I find fine for almost everything else)
