    I'm using a MacBook with two accounts. I recently moved a *.pvm to the shared folder and set necessary permissions so that both accounts can use this *.pvm. Both accounts have access and can start the *.pvm of interest. The problem is this: the machine isn't showing in Control Center. How do you add an existing machine that you can run (Finder --> double click *.pvm) to Control Center?

    Hi David
    open Parallels desktop by the Apple select File>open>then the next pop-up window you will be able to navigate to your .pvm file.> select the Vm you wish to have in the Control Center
