Opening DMG format in Windows 7

 

Hello,

 

The first thing you should know is that there is no point in opening DMG files if they are executable files as you won't be able to do anything with them in Windows.

 

To open files you will need to extract them first. There are plenty of extractors and converters that will do that.  I would suggest you to try the DMG Extractor or dmg2iso.

Opening DMG format in Windows 7

 

Good day Austin

There are a number of ways to convert your dmg files to windows. I will show you how to convert .dmg an ISO file. You first  mount it in PowerISO or WinRAR app. There are more image applications but those two are popular.

First of all logon to http://vu1tur.eu.org/tools/ to download the binary file.

Now extract the files to your Downloads folder.

Now very important hold down the Shift key and right click on the download folder and choose open in command window option.

Now in command put the following in with your details C:UsersyournameDesktoprandom.dmg C:UsersyournameDocumentsConvertedRandom.iso. t

This path is where you store the dmg file you want to convert.

Now you can mount your ISO file in the archive program, like Power ISO or Winrar.

If this is not exactly what you were looking for, and want to work specifically with iWork and MS office.

iWork is compatible with Ms Office. 

When saving a document that you want to later view  i.e. in MS Word you can put an extension .doc next to your file. You can also export it as a MS office file, excel, word, pdf, etc.

Hope this will help you.
