    All,

    Just trying to figure out of their is a way to stop the Parallels Menu Bar from covering with Windows 8.1 Modern App Menu Bar when you move your mouse pointer to the top of the screen.

    Would be great to be able to make the parallels menu be accessible by keyboard shortcut only

    Guidance please.

    Hi sfoster_aus,

    Please Active screen corners: Go to VM Configuration (http://kb.parallels.com/117287) > Options > Full Screen > Un check Use Mac OS X Full screen and check Active screen Corners> Now change the view mode to Full Screen > open any application and let us know how it works.

    Please refer http://bit.ly/1l3hF4U to know more about Full screen mode.

    Thanks Ram

    Perfect Solution. You should add this to the FAQ now Windows 8.1 Modern Apps have Menu Bars :)
