Feature Request: Take Snapshot on Shutdown
1. Need for snapshot on shutdown
There are occasions when I want to take a snapshot immediately after shutting down Windows, when the VM has fully completed a clean non-update shutdown and entered the Stopped state. Today, the only way to do this is...
Setup:
Apple Silicon
Parallels Pro 20.4.0
Windows 11 for ARM VM, updated to latest Windows updates/release
8 vCPUs, 24GB RAM for the VM (my machine has 14 cores and 48GB RAM)

I normally shut down Win Server 2019 by choosing reason for shutdown "Other (Planned)". When I start it up again it always starts up like...
I always use the Suspend feature pause the VM when I am not using it. Many times I have carelessly hit the Shutdown instead because the mouse is just a hair lower than I thought. This has the opposite effect than I wanted. The VM is closed and I have lost work that was unsaved. These two...
