They can be accessed through the Mac OS Finder application by either launching the DMG file or mounting it as a drive. DMG is also referred to as the Apple’s equivalent to MSI files in Windows PC. Non-Macintosh systems may access DMG files and extract or convert them to ISO image files for burning. On the top you will find the download links (EXE and MSI file). Using 7-Zip to convert DMG to IPSW: Click on Add or go to File - Open. Select the DMG file stored on your computer. Click “Extract” button and select the destination folder. #2 Use DMG Extractor (Windows). A dmg to exe conversion is often searched by users that would like to convert an installer for macOS / OS X app (often saved as.dmg or.app) to installer usable on Windows (.exe,.msi etc.). This is not possible via some conversion utility and it is unlikely that some dmg to exe converter exists.

The DMG file extension was created by Apple and is primarily used on Macintosh computers and devices. In most cases the DMG file is used to give the Mac devices the ability to install different types of files and software that originate from the internet. The DMG file is essentially a mountable disc image that shows up on your desktop when it is opened. The file contains raw data that is usually both encrypted and compressed. Mac systems treat DMG in the same way they would treat a disc that was inserted and they instantly try to open or “run” the file.
Technical details of DMG files
The DMG file extension was specifically designed for Macintosh computers and users are likely to have a lot of trouble if trying to use them on a Windows device. There may be instances where one can convert the files, but it probably needed to look for additional utilities that will allow the file to be accessed from the chosen device. There are some also executable files that can help with this. However, if the original DMG file was password protected by Apple, those executable applications may not work. The DMG file has several different formats that are used and these include Linux, Fat32, UFS, ProDOS, HFS and HFS+.

It does not work like that I'm afraid! A windows app is for windows. A Mac app is for.....mac.
There are some apps written for both operating systems, but there is no CONVERSION software to make it work either way.
Perhaps give the forum some examples of what you require? And someone can pop in with a suggestion or two.

Take VLC for instance. It's an open source project. Go to the official site and download the source codes for Windows and Mac, and see how the code is different for each platform. In short, no, you cannot convert an exe to a dmg. But yes, you can let us know if there's a Windows app you'd like, and we can let you know where to download its Mac version (or alternative).
The world would've been so much easier if we had programs and apps working on multiple platforms with a single code!
I want iWork for windows, we can make beautiful presentations with it.
As it's made by apple, only a mac or hackintosh could run it.
However, there are alternatives!
I noticed that you were a student - You may be able to get a HUGE student discount on office through your school. I did so. That would include powerpoint. You can download a free trial here. The student versions often require you to uninstall the trial and then install it off their disks.
You could also try the presenter out of LibreOffice.
