    Encrypting Bootcamp

    I use bootcamp as the target parallels disk & would like to find a way to encrypt it given that I cannot use bit locker. Is there any software that you would recommend to achieve that?

    No, they were already disabled

    Numlock enabled on Startup

    With full size keyboards, I have found that the number pad does not work in numlock mode at startup. I would love to have that enabled by default (clear key must be pressed for now)

    macOS 10.13 high Sierra Support

    For those following, version 13 is working if you already have a bootcamp parallels file created. If you don't you will be waiting on a fix. http://www.kb.parallels.com/en/123840

    macOS 10.13 high Sierra Support

    Another thought: a temporary upgrade with applicable features for version 13, but packaged as a newer version of 12. It'd need to be deregistered for a 15-30 day fix period, if it expires, simply release yet another one as a newer version of 12. Once the fix is ready, release the final as 12.5...

    macOS 10.13 high Sierra Support

    Thanks from all of us. The APFS being forced is hitting a lot of us & given how unstable Apple's beta MacOS software is, it is hard to see the impact. The only real rapid solution would be reverting back to HFS, but I don't know how to do that. Given that I had Bootcamp installed & have 13...

    Hyperthread question

    Question about the CPUs and threads...I have one computer with the i7...it has hyperthreading to it. I see the option to select up to 8 cores...4 are normal and 4 are the hyperthreaded. I want to select 2 normal and 2 hyperthreaded, but I don't know if that is even possible. I instead assume...

    Windows 10 Bootcamp VM can't validate!

    Here's what I have done to make sure it stays activated. When you're in bootcamp, keep the OS loaded until it auto activates...don't manually do it. Once it does, then leave it for a short bit (1hr should do) the restart into parallels mode. It should show not activated. Install or Reinstall...

    Slow shutdown with Windows 10 - even with SSD

    This may be a windows 10 issue. We should see some reviews soon and you already pointed out one culprit. I think it may be doing a last minute sync check.

    Windows 10 Bootcamp VM can't validate!

    Mine finally activated without having to do anything other than wait for it to activate on its own.

    Windows 10 Bootcamp VM can't validate!

    One computer that I upgraded that has followed 7 to 8 to 8.1 to 10 has stayed activated on both bootcamp and parallels. I installed on bootcamp. Another required a reinstall after the OS corrupted. I installed 8.1 from disk, then upgraded to 10 using bootcamp again, but only bootcamp will...

    No compatible display adapter for windows 10?

    I just bought parallels because the settings indicated that it supported windows 10, though it appears it's only partially supported. Any news on a working display adapter software? Or the next parallels?

    Windows 8 Start Bar

    Start 8 may be the only program to function this way. You can actually set it up either way. By default, start 8 will bring up the modern UI start screen, but you can change that by going into start 8's configuration, select "control" and uncheck "show the Windows 8 menu when I press the right...

    Windows 8 Start Bar

    This is BIG! I've finally updated my server with a second copy of Parallels 8 to test out this feature. Bootcamp is working well and as it turns out...If you have Start 8 installed and you go into coherence mode, the windows button or clicking on the parallels icon in the bottom tray, or you...

    Windows 8 Start Bar

    There are programs out there (start8 being one of them) that give us back the start menu/orb/whatever you want to call it nowadays. I would that to function in parallels & windows 8 just as windows 7 has behaved. Hit the parallels icon brings up the start menu in coherence. I use no metro...

    Windows 8 Start Bar

    *bump* So I'm using Start 8 on my server without parallels, has parallels adjusted to work with Start 8 yet? Namely as If I'd hit the start bar and the start 8 button would pop up as opposed to switch over to Metro?

    Windows 8 Start Bar

    My objective is to click on the parallels icon and be able to access the start menu, like in windows 7. Even now with Start8 installed, it will open up metro instead, which in my opinion is a huge mess if you work with several hundred professional apps. Can Parallels build an option to bring...

    Windows 8 Start Bar

    I guess I should clarify, this could be built in with coordination from someone who builds a good 3rd party startbar and then we'd be back in business.

    Windows 8 Start Bar

    So in coherence, we no longer have the clean popup we used to have...the metro thing takes over the entire screen. I just hate this, expecially having to find my apps of which I have a lot. I installed start8 to get that option back, but I wish there was an integration of the old system...

    SSD and Memory question

    I have my bootcamp partition set up through parallels and it works fine. The only problem is that every bit of the ram I set for parallels is cached on the hard drive, taking about 4GB of space until parallels shuts down. being that I have 8 GB of ram actually installed of which 2 GB is in...
