question

Hi, with the release of Parallels 26 I noticed that the comparison chart changed and now contains a line: "Run multiple virtual machines (VMs) simultaneously" Does this mean that the standard edition of Parallels 26 is not able to run multiple VMs at the same time anymore? Thanks

if I don't renew my subscription, am I able to still use the program?

I'm currently using Parallels primarily to test screen reader support on Windows, and the screen reader gets pretty noisy sometimes. I can deal with that when I'm actively working on it, but it'll sometimes read out system notifications like battery alerts when I'm in a meeting or when my laptop...

Looking back, I can't believe what I was thought... I cannot remember anythings but one that I stopped it during that command. For now, the Ubuntu VM can't be boot!!! Bootloader has gone.. I am anxiously asking you.. How can I recover it? * Configuration * Parallels VM: Ubuntu 24.04 (with...

Hi, I'm running Parallels 17 on a Intel Mac running MacOS 10.15. I need to run some apps in an older MacOS. I have a drive with a barebones MacOS 10.9.5 installed. Is there a way to import the MacOS 10.9.5 HD into a VM to run in Parallels? Basically clone the HD into a VM. The main reason is...

Is it possible to enable FileVault in a MacOS guest on a MacOS host (FileVault on) running Sequoia on Apple Silicon? Thanks.

My situation is I have a client that 90% uses macs in their office. They map a drive/connect to server to access their data share. The issue that I'm seeing that accessing a SMB share with a mac is slower from the googling I've done and also the pc user never has any slowness issues. Will...

Hi, May I know if there is any documentation to explain different errors on Parallels RAS? Decryption_error_(00003078) Network_error_(00002308) Network_error_(00003078) Network_error_(1073741849) Thanks, Tony

Hi, I'm planning to use Parallels with all my base M4 Macbook Air can give me to run a Linux VM. This VM will probably be either Arch or Manjaro ARM, and run KDE Plasma with Wayland. It will have to run on my external monitor which is 4K and has a refresh rate of 75Hz. I won't be playing games...

Title is the question. I have an old windows XP pvm image last run under version 14 that I would like to access on a new mac with apple A4 silicon. I get the attached error message when I attempt to open the pvm: Error message appears backwards in that I have the latest version running. I...

I have an M4 Pro MacBook Pro & an M2 Max Mac Studio, and I would like to be able to run the same Windows 11 VM on either machine, depending on if I am at home or somewhere else. I think this comes down to one of three solutions, but if you have other suggestions I would like to hear about them...

I have read some stuff on the web that suggests it may be possible to run x86_64 versions of macOS in a Parallels guest on Apple silicon (e.g. M4). Is that doable? If so how - do I just DL the ipsw file and let rip or is there (much) more to it than that? Thanks D.

If I cancel my subscription after one year, will my copy of Parallels Pro still work?

For the standard user using this as a way to run a Windows 11 VM. Is their any reason to really buy Pro over Standard? Also I tend to not go with the subscription and just buy it once every few years. I don't really see much of a preformance bump from one year to the next. What do most...

Hi everyone, I'm running Windows in a Parallels virtual machine on my MacBook Air M3, and I've connected a 144 Hz external monitor. By default, the VM inherits the display's full 144 Hz refresh rate, which causes my MacBook to heat up significantly. I contacted Parallels support, and they...

I was initially considering getting the MacBook Air with the M4 chip, but I've seen complaints about overheating and throttling without even using Parallels. Since I plan to run Power BI Desktop via Parallels, I'm now wondering which model would be better suited for that. Specifically, I'm...

Today Parallels Desktop Pro 20.3.1 displayed a dialog asking if I wanted to enable Travel Mode for a running macOS VM. I suppose that it happened because I was running low of battery. However, after I accepted to enable Travel Mode, I have not found a way to check/disable it, either in GUI or...

I noticed at least 3 virtio drivers loaded in my Debian system under Parallels 20 .. is that a new thing?

Hi, Assuming i have a Mac with a M4 CPU, can i install windows on ARM on parallel Desktop and it will provide the Copilot+ features (AI) Thanks

1. Do I need to uninstall open-vm-tools from my Linux systems that include it automatically (OpenSuSE and Debian)? 2. So far I just have left well enough alone - do Parallels Tools coexist with the open-vm-tools and open-vm-tools-desktop?
