    On my MacBook Pro, the default resolution is 3440 x 1440. When in Parallels, the resolution on my external monitor changes periodically to 1920 x 1080 (the default). How can I change the default resolution to match that of my MacBook Pro? Is there a way to change the default resolution to...

    Screen resolution changes after every restart

    Every time I restart the computer, Parallells changes the resolution of 1 of my 2 Studio Displays to 1280x1024. Correct resolution is 5120x2880. So I need to manually change the resolution of 1 of my 2 screens every time I restart. This is not practical. Is it a Parallells feature or a bug...

I'm running Sonoma 14.5 in full screen mode with "best for retina" enabled. My MacBook is connected to an LG Ultrafine 5K and that's where I have Parallels in full screen...

    Is Parallels Tools working in recent Linux VMs? Screen Res in Mint 21 X.Org/Server 1.21?

    Before going further down the troubleshooting rabbit hole, thought to first ask here whether this is a general problem. Had been running Tools 16 in Linux Mint 20 under Parallels Desktop 13 (Mac OS 10.11, late 2013 iMac) without problem. After figuring out how to tune grub to boot Linux Mint 21...

    The display resolution option is not available

    I went into the "control center" settings and set the graphics settings to allow "best for retina display." I am using a Macbook Pro with the M1 chip, so I'm not sure why the option is unavailable and the screen resolution is rather low. I appreciate any help from other folks who are...

    Kali Linux screen resolution changes every time

    Hello, I am using Parallels 17 and my screen resolution is set to "more spaced" - using retina screen resolution. However in the guest OS things are a little bit hard to read, so I am manually changing the screen res to 2560x1600. All is well, but whenever I reboot / restart the VM the screen...

    Cursor pointer is too small after changing the display's resolution on Ubuntu 20.04

    I was using Ubuntu 20.04 on my second with a different resolution compared to my main one. After my work was completed, I suspended the virtual machine and closed the app. And now launched the app to continue my work and I changed the screen resolution inside the guest OS to be compatible with...

    Big Sur VM screen resolution

    Running Big Sur VM in Parallels Desktop 16.5.0, host os is Catalina. It seems that Big Sur VM only supports 1024x768 screen resolution which is very undesirable. Reinstalling toolkit didn't fix it. Any idea how to fix it?

    Screen Resolution Tool does not work

    I just upgraded to MacOS Big Sur. I've never used the Screen Resolution tool before the upgrade so I can't say if it worked previously. I thought I'd give it a try to manage my resolution on three monitors. When I click the icon, nothing happens. No application launches, nothing! No errors...
