    Hi folks,

    How do I prevent the "Shared Folder" share from appearing after a reboot please?

    I am running the latest Parallels (Version 14.1.3 (45485)), both the Main OS and the VM are macOS 10.14.5 Beta (18F118d) and I have sharing turned off.

    I'm not sure this is the best solution but I removed com.parallels.vm.prl_fsd.plist from /Library/LaunchDaemons/ and I no longer get the folder.

    Anyone from Parallels have any advice on this?

    You've made the only possible workaround with removing com.parallels.vm.prl_fsd.plist file. But also should be noted that after Guest Tools update you'll probably need to remove it again (if we don't change such behaviour).

    Thanks rkulikov,
    That works ok but I have also noticed that using the same settings I use for my Windows VMs I don't see my Network shares, if I change the setting I get Network Shares but loose Internet Access.

    Does this sound like something you have come across before?

    No. If you have networking problem, please start a new thread and explain the details there.
