    you can run windows software on a windows partition using wine, but it is extremely brittle, since you’re going from a case-insensitive windows file system as well.

      Another problem would be the dependencies and initial configuration would not be present unless the software was built with portability in mind

        i was thinking maybe a hypothetical “global wine” could use the windows drive itself as its drive_c, which would bypass that issue.
