Good afternoon everyone,
I am a little late to the 'save the 32-bit apps' party, but after watching the Witcher on Netflix, I really wanted to be able to play via Steam. It is a 32-bit download, and I picked it up about a year ago when I was still on Mojave. I have been unable to play since upgrading to Catalina earlier this year.
I had a license for an old version of Parallels (v. 13) that I first tried to use yesterday to install High Sierra on top of Catalina, but I got the dreaded 'not optimized for your Mac' message. I uninstalled and deleted everything, and this morning I upgraded to the free trial of v. 15. I reinstalled High Sierra, installed Steam, downloaded the Witcher app via Steam, and got the same just now when i tried to play (please see screenshot).
I have exhaustively searched this Forum, as well as reviewed this article (
https://www.parallels.com/blogs/run-32-bit-on-mac/) and watched this video (
https://www.parallels.com/blogs/catalina-32-bit-apps/), following all instructions.
I would be willing and happy to pay the $49.99 to upgrade to Parallels v. 15, but not unless I can get this to work. Does anyone have any suggestions?
