    Hello folks,

    I am trying to run a windows-based game on my 2018 intel macbook pro on parallels.

    However, I run into the issue of 'Sorry, this application cannot run under a virtual machine' - I have searched extensively for a solution, and have tried to disable and uninstall hyper-v, changed regedit registries, but to no avail.

    I was wondering if anyone else had the same issue, and have managed to solve the issue?

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    To resolve the issue you can try going to Turn Windows features on or off the Control Panel applet and turning off: the Hyper-V Virtual Machine Platform. You can also Disable the Windows Hypervisor Platform.

    This doesn't work with Maplestory. It says 'Sorry, this application cannot run under a virtual machine' - Is there a work around this?
