Mac OS X and Windows are different types of computer operating system. Windows uses executable (.exe) files while Macs use applications (.app) files. The programming instructions are different between the two systems and so Mac OS X will not recognize an .exe file as a usable file,

If your Mac has an Intel processor you can install the Windows system on your Mac and then run .exe files from there.
