    Latest build of Parallels for OS X. Been running an admin system on it for a year (Win7) and did an upgrade to Windows10 for testing. For the life of me I cannot keep it from pausing. I've changed every setting in preferences off/on/off again and have checked my power settings in Windows. Everything appears as it was under Win7 yet any time of inactivity it pauses and then I cannot remove in.

    Plus is there a feature to wake on network/remote access that can be turned on?

    You can refer the article and change the auto pause setting.

    I cannot get a copy of Mac OSX to stop pausing. That article is useless as that option does not exist in my setup.
    This is frustrating.

  4. Hello, your macOS VM pauses when your doesn't use it, right? And you would like to run it on background? Please correct me if I'm wrong.
