If you don’t do this, everytime you try to lauch Microsoft Money on your Mac it will crash with the error message “msmoney.exe has encountered a serious problem and needs to close” If you’re using macOS 10.12 Sierra or 10.13 High Sierra, it’s very important that you also uncheck the box “Auto Detect GPU Info for Direct3D”. Go to the Wineskin menu and Click on Set Screen Options and uncheck the option “Decorate Windows” and click Done.

You then need to go back to Wineskin and configure some screen settings.

When finished you’ll see a “Choose Executable” window – use the drop-down list to choose the line ending with “msmoney.exe” and click OK.

A few seconds later you’ll see an “installation complete” message and a prompt to click “Finish” to open Money Plus.

You’ll see a prompt to install more operating system components.

The Microsoft Money Plus Sunset Deluxe windows installer will then launch.

After browsing to the file and clicking “Choose”, the Money Setup process will start.

Click “Choose Setup Executable” and browse to the EXE file you downloaded in Step 1.

Then double click on the Microsoft Money Wineskin icon that was created and the Microsoft Money Wineskin installer will launch. Click on “View wrapper in Finder” and it will take you to where the Microsoft Money wrapper is installed which is in the Wineskin folder in Applications.

You should then see a message saying that the Microsoft Money Wrapper Creation is complete.

If you then see another prompt to install the Wine Gecko Installer, you can ignore it and click Cancel as Microsoft Money does not need HTML embed support.

You’ll then see a prompt from the Wine Mono Installer to install a Mono package.

Note that there should be NO SPACE in the name of the wrapper (ignore the example below – you should make the name either one word or add a hyphen in between Microsoft and Money).

Call the Wrapper “MSMoney” and click OK.

Make sure it is selected and click Create Blank Wrapper at the bottom.

The Wine engine will then take less than a minute to download and install and you’ll see it in your engine list.

You can choose the latest version which at the time of writing was WS9Wine 1.5.23 with Wrapper version 2.5.8.

You will see various engines to choose from.

Open Wineskin and click on the “+” symbol to add an engine.

Note that if you intend on opening UK Microsoft Money files you need to download the UK version of Money 2005 because Deluxe only works with US files. Microsoft replaced Microsoft Money in 2010 with Microsoft Money Plus Sunset Deluxe which is free and very similar to MS Money.

Download both Wineskin Winery and Microsoft Money Plus Sunset Deluxe.

If you really can’t live without MS Money though, follow these instructions to run it on your Mac.
