Hi all, so I don't know if this is the correct section for this thread. But I have Redragon mouse with a driver that's only in .exe, is there a program to convert .exe files to .dmg files? It'd be nice to use the driver on my personal computer instead of having to use a different Windows computer for it. If there is please link me to a video or the actual program of it.

Thanks!

You're asking about two different things. A .exe file is a Windows application, or program, and a .dmg is a Mac disk image.
It seems that you're really looking for is a Mac driver for your mouse, and for that, there's no way to convert a Windows driver to work on a Mac. Your mouse may not actually need a driver on a Mac; have you tested it?

I can use the mouse just fine on the Mac. I'd just like the driver to remap the buttons on it (it's a gaming mouse). So it's not essential to convert it. It'd just be nice if I could.

Like I said, you won't be able to convert the Windows driver to work on the Mac but something like USB Overdrive might work for you:

In addition to BetterTouchTool that oldhifi suggested, you could look at USB OverDrive, and SteerMouse for remapping your mouse buttons.
