I can confirm that changing from Shared networking to Bridged did help me. BUT...not 100%. I made the changes, restarted a number of times, still got the failure. Only when I did a full Windows shutdown and then turn it back on did it work. Not sure who is to blame here, but this remains a...

Are these settings still supposed to work? They do not work me, and "Remote Desktop" is not available as an option to click in my firewall settings at all.

Disappointed to read this thread and see the issue remains, as I'm also someone using Quick Assist regularly. I'm pretty sure it WAS working for me after the date of the last messages here...but in the last couple months, it did break again and I cannot resolve it. (M2 Mac mini, ARM Windows.)...

I can confirm that even with the latest Parallels and Windows 11 updates, Quick Assist does not work from an M1-based Mac. Step 1 - I give my security code to the remote partner. Step 2 - They enter the security code, and click "Share Screen". Step 3 - On my end, I'm asked to "Take Control" or...

Dmitry - I was able to install both 18353.1 and 18356.1 without needing to download and install the updated Parallels. I do however still have the "devices.x2apic.enable=0" boot flag manually enabled in Parallels Version 14.1.2 (45479). After installing the next Parallels update, should this...

Fortunately, I didn't have that issue with the upgrade. So perhaps it's specific to your setup.

The boot flag also allowed me to be updated as well. As a technology consultant, I am curious if you could explain exactly what this flag is meant to do, why it's necessary (Windows issue or Parallels issue) and what the future fix will be. I don't need to include this in all future setups...

Not happy that others are experiencing these crashes, but pleased to see I am not alone. I'm sure Parallels is investigating as we speak.

Can someone explain: 1 - What exactly does this command do, and why does it help? 2 - What command will UNDO this when/if Parallels provides a fix? I am NOT suffering from the interrupt storm issue, NOR does moving my mouse around speed up my virtual machine. But I DO, however, have a mid-2011...

Agreed. Any response, Parallels? Beuller? Beuller?

Agreed. All focus should have been on making Yosemite work as a GUEST OS first. It doesn't need to work properly as a host until the end of September. But we've all wanted a safe place to test it on our preferred virtualization software since WWDC.

Yep...that is exactly the same behavior I saw. And no...I cannot swipe through apps either. I didn't know that was supposed to be possible.

Like you, I must click-drag down. Can't simply swipe from the top of my Magic Trackpad. What about my left-swipe issue? Does it work for you if less than two apps are open?

I have a question about the Windows 8 left-swipe: Let's say I have the Windows 8 Start Screen up with all the tiles. I then open up the Mail app, then exit back to the Start Screen. If I move my mouse pointer to the upper-left corner of the Start Screen, I get the tiny preview icon showing...

This would work, if only Parallels actually supported USB booting in the boot device menu. (They do not.) Apparently it has been promised for many years, so I won't hold my breath. But for the techs and engineers reading these forums, please move it to the top of the list. With Apple...

Same issue here with the mouse. Looking forward to a resolution.

Not that I can speak for Parallels, but just to try and clarify something... I am sure that Parallels knows that having to reactivate Windows each time you switch back and forth between running Windows in the VM and Boot Camp is not acceptable. That is why their approach to it involves...

I appreciate the suggestion, Constant. Contacted Sony and did upgrade the BIOS, but it did not help. There was no user-configurable option in the BIOS to turn VT-x on/off. I need to just bite the bullet and go out and get an Intel Mac, but was waiting to see the next MacBook release with...

I was running Parallels 2.2 build 2050 on a Sony VAIO VGN-FE590P (Core Duo 1.83 GHz) ansd getting the same exact message. I upgraded to build 2072 right before posting here and it did the same thing with the same error. I'm simply told that I need to enable VT-x in my BIOS. I called Sony...

Mac keyboards have a key marked "fn" in the lower left corner, next to the "ctrl" key. If you press "fn" (which stands for function) and hold it down while pressing F8, it should work fine for you.
