parallels 12

Hello dear community members, I just jumped into this forum because I'm desperately seeking any hint/help I can get. First things first: I don't own Parallels but I have a Mac Mini (Intel, Late 2014) from a client standing next to me that's running macOS 10.12.6 (Sierra) - yes I know this is...

Hello I am trying to get Parallels 12 for my Mac but when I startup the Parallels Desktop I get exactly this; Unable to connect Hard Disk 0. A file or device required for the operation of Hard Disk 0 does not exist or is used by another process, or you have no permission to access it. The...

I own a permanent version of Parallels Desktop 12 for mac and with the release of the new Parallels Desktop 15, I had a question if the upgrade option would work on my key.

Using my Macbook Pro on OS Mojave, starting up Windows 10 on Parallels 12 gives me the prompt "Your PC did not start correctly. Press "Restart" to restart your PC, which can sometimes fix the problem. You can also press Advanced Options to try other options to repair your PC." I tried to system...

Parallels' Developer Certificate which is used for the code signature for Parallels Desktop 12 expired Monday, October 22, 2018 at 12:11:00 AM UTC. This is causing Parallels Desktop 12 to crash on launch with the following: Exception Type: EXC_CRASH (Code Signature Invalid) Exception...

I received an email saying my subscription had renewed, and I followed the link to Activation Instructions and downloaded Parallels 12. (I had 12.2.1.) But, however, when I click on it in my Applications folder, it doesn't load. It just spins, and I have to Force Quit out of it. What am I...

I'm using a 32 bit application in Windows 10 Pro in Parallels 12 in a MacBook Pro running High Sierra 10.13.13 I cannot save files anymore with the 32 bit application.

After a lengthy upgrade to Windows 10, using Parallels 12, Windows seems to start up correctly but then shows a screen that say "Choose privacy settings for your device". There are two buttons at the bottom of this screen - "Learn more" and "Accept". Neither button does anything and the screen...

I installed Parallels 13 last night and now QuickenWindow will not display any screen for Quicken 2015 Home & Business. If I select "Show All Windows," what I get is icons for my various Quicken backup and data files. I can click on any one of them and QuickenWindow still won't display a Quicken...

I want to uninstall Windows 10 from my Mac and have so far followed the steps: Control Centre > Remove to remove the virtual machine. however, does this action uninstall Windows and the applications that were installed as the process happened very quickly. Are there any other actions I should...

How can a base VM be created with no hard drives in V12? File-New appears to give me a wizard that contains all OS installations that would require a hard drive. And the only other option I see is to connect an existing virtual machine, which would require me to have the file I am trying to...

Many of us have adopted a PIN to login to Windows 10. Is there a way to get the NumLock set by default when the VM boots?

I've bought Parallels 11 a while ago and then upgraded to version 12. I noticed that under my account I now have two license keys - one new for 12 (that I successfully updated to and using every day) and a previous one for version 11. What I want is to install older (11) version on my wife's...

Hi Parallels, This appears to be an issue that has come up for a lot of parallels 12 users, but I have not found a resolve yet. I am about to fully re-build the VM, but was hoping for a last minute break-through. I'll keep it to the point, some of which is borrowed from another outdated forum...

I apologize if this has been answered - but I couldn't find anything in my searches. I'm using Parallels 12, and tried to update my Windows virtual machine to the Windows 10 Creator Edition. I did this update from within my Windows virtual machine. Everything went smoothly, until after the...

I've seen suggestions for fixing the installation agent hanging at other percentages, but not for my issue, in which the tools installation agent is hanging at 51%. Worse, I cannot do anything in the Windows VM because of the hanging--not a single keystroke is registered, nor does any item from...
