Bottles

[Important]

CrossOver Games includes support for multiple bottles. A bottle is a virtual Windows environment with its own isolated C: drive, fonts, registry, and software.

Bottles are especially useful when installing unsupported software or when testing the behavior of a new application. They can also be used to run different versions of the same program (Internet Explorer, for example) at the same time.

Many users will be perfectly happy using only a single, default bottle. Additional bottles are useful anytime there is a risk of adverse interaction between two applications, or whenever an application requires unique system settings to operate properly. CrossOver Games's interface allows you to manage and configure your bottles easily and quickly.
