    After updating to Parallels 17.1.4 (51567), Parallels Tools failed to update. I tried installing from the iso using ./install-cli.sh but encountered the following error.
    Code:

    The line from the log
    /bin/sh: 1: cd: can't cd to prl_notifier/Installation/lnx/prl_notifier
    indicates something weird is going on. May be because of the lack of disk space? Another idea is to clean-up previous parts of Parallels Tools installation
    $ sudo rm -rf /usr/lib/parallels-tools
    and to re-try installation.

    I've figured out the issue, which is mounting prl-tools-lin.iso instead of prl-tools-lin-arm.iso. However, the GUI installer issue still needs to be fixed.

    FWIW I had the same problem, and a slight variation of the above fixed it:
    - Delete /{usr,var}/lib/parallels-tools
    - Reboot
    - Reinstall parallels tools (I used the command line version, not sure it matters)
    - Reboot again
    Thanks!

    Works great! Thanks!
    Just to add that only command-line installation works for me.

    correction, only running install as root works for me

    Correct, CLI works just fine. Forget using the GUI and automatic launch of the tool install.
