Windows File Explorer

I have installed Grabit, a usenet downloader. It runs great but I don't know how to move files from the download directory into the regular MAC file system. There is a button in Grabit that opens the download folder and that opens in Wine Explorer. I tried copy/pasting from the download folder into a regular MAC folder (downloads) but nothing works. Drag and drop doesn't work either. How can I move stuff from the download directory? Thanks!

Sometimes, I wonder why manuals are ever created. 😋

That being said, if you would have opened the bottle manager, you have seen a "open c: drive" button, allowing you to see the fake c drive in the Mac native file manager. You can then navigate to your files and move/copy them.

Once you know where your files are, you can also make a symbolic link to a more useful place and quicker access like so, in a terminal:

ln -s /where/my/files/are /where/I_want_the/link/to/be
