    Since I upgraded to High Sierra I have this glitch when switching from Mac to Win on full screen mode:


    Im using Parallels 13 on a 2016 MacBook Pro.

    Thanks

    Same problem here, I hope an update comes soon to fix this.
    I have also noticed that when I updated a file inside the VM, and then switch to the mac, I cannot see this file under the "recent files" section in finder. This used to work perfectly before.

    Same here with an Ubuntu 16.04 guest running in full screen. 10.13 with Parallels 13.0.1 on a 15" MBP (Mid-2015).

    We have an issue with Video artefacts when switching desktop spaces in Full-Screen mode.Our Engineering team is working on it for a fix. We do not have a workaround as of now. Please refer http://kb.parallels.com/123840 for known issues in Parallels Desktop 13 and subscribe to get updates.

    We have the same problem - but also when this happens and we switch back to the original screen we can no longer select any of the applications on that screen to use them - I have to go back to the dock to select the icon for the application to use it !!! Along the top of the screen (the menu part) it only ever shows the name of the Parallels VM (such as Windows 64bit) so it looks like my mouse gets 'locked' to Windows however as it is in a different 'space' then I can't select any of the windows in Mac as I would expect to.

    Very disappointing once again :(

    I have the problem full screen glitch, few days ago I migrated to High Sierra, and I had to updated to parallels 13. Nowadays I have a Macbook Pro 2015, 16gb Ram, 512 Ssd, Retina, and I have a VM based in Windows 10. I tried to solve the problem change memory video, used the options best for retina, or escalation, etc, without any good results. It's really annoying to me because a switching the screen a lot for my working. Please Mrs Parallels Stuff fix this problem soon.

    Same problem here. It is extremely frustrating and I am dreading the fact for updating. How was this missed during testing???

    I found a minor inconvenient workaround to get around this. Do the following:
    1. Place the parallels instance in full screen mode in its own space
    2. Open a blank note or finder window
    3. Split the space currently being used by the parallels instance with the blank note / finder window
    4. The video artefact is no longer present when flipping between spaces

    This might be a guide as to what is causing the issue...

    Hi @MasriM , Parallels Desktop 11 for Mac is not compatible with Mac Os X High Sierra. Please purchase the upgrade to Parallels Desktop 13 for Mac and check if that works.

    Please see further up in the post where I have stated I have Parallels Desktop 13 and High Sierra and it is not working on my PC. I still have this random video artefacts. I have now seen it is on my Windows and Ubuntu virtual machines.

    Hello support,

    in http://kb.parallels.com/123840 is this problem listed:
    Issue: Video artefacts when switching desktop spaces in Full Screen mode.
    Workaround: Will be fixed in the upcoming macOS update

    Today I installed macO 10.13.1 and hoped that the problem is solved. But it still exists. Will there come a new update from parallels?

    Johann
