    I have an Apple M2 Pro Max MacBook Pro and the CPU Temp reported is 44 degrees Fahrenheit. This should probably be fixed lol.

    Hello Don,
    Thank you for contacting Parallels Support.
    To try to resolve your issue, kindly do the following below:
    Find Parallels Toolbox in the top menu of Mac > Find CPU Temperature > Start the tool > Go to Preferences > Temperature > Pick Fahrenheit.
    Check if the issue still persists.
    If so, collect a technical report as per this article: https://kb.parallels.com/en/124107
    Then copy 9-digit ID of the report and provide it in a reply message with screenshot of the issue (when Fahrenheit selected, but still shows as Celsius) .
    Let us know if it helped you.

    You misunderstand the issue. It's not reporting celsius as fahrenheit. If the preference is F, it shows the CPU temp as 44 degrees, GPU temp as 32 degrees - that's freezing! If I change the preference to celsius, the CPU temp is 6 degrees, GPU is 0 degrees. These are both totally inaccurate, the CPU and GPU are not near freezing temps.

    I did run technical report and submitted it, the report number is 417614601.

    Hello,
    with Toolbox Version 6.0.2 the CPU-Temperature shows "--" degrees Celsius for the CPU and around 32 degrees Celsius for the GPU-Core (MacMini / M2-Pro).
