Dmg to exe conversion is often searched by users that would like to convert an installer for macOS / OS X app (often saved as.dmg or.app) to installer usable on Windows (.exe,.msi etc.). This is not possible via some conversion utility and it is unlikely that some dmg to exe converte r exists.
| Name | DMG |
| Full name | DMG, Mac OS X Disk Image |
| File extension | .dmg |
| MIME type | |
| Developed by | Apple INC. |
| Type of format | Raster image |
| Description | The DMG file extension was created by Apple and is primarily used on Macintosh computers and devices. In most cases the DMG file is used to give the Mac devices the ability to install different types of files and software that originate from the internet. The DMG file is essentially a mountable disc image that shows up on your desktop when it is opened. The file contains raw data that is usually both encrypted and compressed. Mac systems treat DMG in the same way they would treat a disc that was inserted and they instantly try to open or “run” the file. |
| Technical details | The DMG file extension was specifically designed for Macintosh computers and users are likely to have a lot of trouble if trying to use them on a Windows device. There may be instances where one can convert the files, but it probably needed to look for additional utilities that will allow the file to be accessed from the chosen device. There are some also executable files that can help with this. However, if the original DMG file was password protected by Apple, those executable applications may not work. The DMG file has several different formats that are used and these include Linux, Fat32, UFS, ProDOS, HFS and HFS+. |

I was wondering if there is any software around that can convert .exe files to .dmg files
The only time it would help to do that would be if the .exe file was a self expanding Zip archive. And then only if the contents were even usable on a Mac.
.exe files are a Windows executable. A program in other words. Unless you're running Windows in an emulator such as Parallels or Virtual PC, they won't do you a bit of good.
If you could even find a program to decompile (reverse engineer) an .exe file and recompile for the Mac OS, it would be illegal to do so most of the time. Pretty much any commercial software forbids such action.
Also, quite a bit of .exe files you may download are installer programs for Windows. So it would produce yet more .dll, .exe and other Windows-centric files.
