    Tools Window Stuck in Corner

    The last few days I've noticed that my Tools window is stuck in the bottom right corner. I can't move the window, and there items that make it onto the screen. I google the issue and tried all of the solutions, but none of them worked. How do I fix this?

    Android Tools & Tweaks?

    Since Android 9 is one of the pre-packaged OS downloads, I would have thought there would be more information about it and what it can do and what it can't. I was looking for Parallels Tools to install so I could at least use copy and paste and move the cursor in and out of the window, but I...

    Provide a configuration option to utilize open-vm-tools

    A simple way for Parallels to improve their *nix support is to provide the ability to configure a vm to use open-vm-tools (open software). This would reduce the problems in *nix systems due to poor or non-support of various *nix drivers such as video, network, and SSD/HD.

    Graphic Equalizer for Mac

    A great feature that would be handy to have and not included anywhere else as a separate application for Mac would be a Graphic Equalizer to allow precise control over the tone of audio. Parallels Toolbox already contains other audio and video tools and this would compliment those nicely. I...

    Linux Guest Tools: a call to open source

    The PRLVIDEO driver in guest tools is using a very outdated technology: Xinerama extension. All major Linux distributions switched to XRandR about a decade ago. I think it is time for Parallels do the same :). P.S. Also, if Parallels wants to make a huge impact -- open source your guest tools...
