    While parallels is running, it says I can't adjust the memory allocation, but when it is closed, the configuration screen isn't available on the drop down menu. How do I access the config page when the virtual machine isnt running?

    Hi @DougA3, start your virtual machine and go the Configuration settings -> Options -> Startup and Shutdown -> tick "Startup and shut down manually" and then stop the virtual machine (Action - > Shut down). Click on the Parallels icon on Mac menu bar and choose Configure under your virtual machine section, click on the cogwheel on top right corner of the virtual machine's window to adjust the memory allocation. Thanks!
