    Hi all,
    i have a strange problem: When i accessing via Finder the partition of my windows 8 installation on paralles i find some folder names added with a 1 which indicates there is another folder with same name but this is not the case. Looking from within the virtual machine to that folder name shows it without the 1.

    Any ideas on this?

    Hi sorry for the late response, have been on business trip.

    I only have this problem on my mac. Don´t have it on my macbook pro, so i don´t know how to reproduce this situation.

    the first scrrenshot from my mac finder (oneDrive - mm1 1):

    And the second screenshot from within the virtual machine (Windows 8.1) (OneDrive - mm1)

    No that doesn´t help because i need to rename the windows folder name in mac. I tried, but got the message i hav not sufficient privileges to rename. Removing oneDrive Sharing and reactivating also did not help.
