    I had a Parallels Desktop 14 for Mac Permanent license and now for some reason it has kicked me out and is asking me to upgrade to an annual subscription....

    Why? I want to maintain my previous subscription not an annual subscription

    Please advise

    Hello Muhammed,

    Please share a screenshot of the error message.

    As of now, you have a permanent version and not a subscription.

    You can only use your license on Parallels Desktop 14.

    Please check if you have installed a newer version.

    Please find below the link for Parallels Desktop 14:
    https://download.parallels.com/desktop/v14/14.1.3-45485/ParallelsDesktop-14.1.3-45485.dmg

    Thanks
