    Can I use a .pvm file from Intel on M4 iMac?

    Hello, I searched and this wasn't covered in other posts (that I could find). I don't mean to be a bother but I've tried multiple ways to transfer a .pvm linux file from my Intel-based MacBook Pro over to my new M4 iMac (Sequoia 15.3.2, 36gb) with no success. I can't compress the file. I tried...

    I have Windows 11; can I safely delete Windows 10.pvm?

    Last year, I got a new MacBook Pro 14-inch (2023). My old MacBook Pro ran Parallels with Windows 10; now I have Windows 11. Even so, my machine still has a file labeled Windows 10.PVM, and it occupies 60.87 GB on my SSD. There's also a file named Windows 10-0.hdd.0... .hds, and it occupies 59.35...

    Options for running a .pvm file

    I have a Windows XP (!) .pvm file that I would like to run. I have been running it in Parallels Desktop for Mac, but recently upgraded to an M1 MacBook, which can't run the old x86 pvm files [correct me if I am wrong]. It's unclear if Parallels will eventually support old Intel based pvm files...

    Shrink .pvm size SAFELY

    Hey guys, I have successfully cloned my windows 8.1 machine and transferred it to a VM on my new macbook pro. Everything works great. However, the file size is 320gb, with 200gb used and 120gb free. Which means I could reduce my .pvm file size to 200gb and save 120gb of space on my Macbook pro...
