I'm on Parallels 10.2 and there is no Use Maclook option in the View menu. I have also installed Parallels Tools but Maclook is still not there. It's something I would like to use and just wondering if anyone has any idea how to make it available. Thanks
Hello JimH1, We understand that you would like to get Mac look with the Windows Virtual Machine. In order to get Mac look, please refer to this article, http://kb.parallels.com/6858
The article simply tells me to select Use Maclook from the View menu, but it isn't there. I am logged in as an admin and I have installed Parallels tools.
Hello JimH1, Please let us know which version of Windows operating system you are using. The Mac look option will be available for Windows 7 and earlier versions. For Windows 8 or Windows 8.1, a new feature called "Windows 7 look" is available. For reference: http://kb.parallels.com/en/116716 Thanks, Padman
Hello JimH1, When you start the Virtual Machine, from the Apple menu bar at the top of the screen >> click on View >> Use MacLook. If the option is already checked, un-check that and then try clicking on it, an application will be installed which will enable MacLook.
Hello JimH1, Please try re-installing Parallels Tools, to re-install Parallels Tools refer to this Knowledge Based article, http://kb.parallels.com/4841
And now we all know: Resolution Note: The MacLook option is not available in Parallels Desktop 11, so if you remove it after upgrading Parallels Desktop to version 11, you will not be able to use it again.
