I just bought a new mac with the M2 chip and installed paralells since the new ARM chips do not support bootcamp. While using my Mac--and not Paralells/Windows--a notification on my Mac popped up that an external url at tranferwise was trying to initiate the Clean Drive application. Of course I'm very concerned about this--I didn't even know external calls could do that, and as far as I know transferwise has been changed to simply wise.
Clean Drive notification linked to external url

Greetings MarcF7,
Thank you for posting on Parallels Forum.
To let us better understand the issue, kindly reproduce the issue and collect a technical report as per this article: https://kb.parallels.com/en/124107
In the description of the technical report, attach screenshots of notifications that you having and error messages (if any).
Then copy 9-digit ID of the report and send it in a reply message.
Looking forward to hearing from you soon.
I have not been able to replicate the notification and have seen no further incidence of it happening. What happened was during the install of parallels there was a question about allowing notifications on my Mac--which I clicked "yes" to. When I rebooted my Mac after install; that's when the notification message came up that an external device at a url at transferwise was trying to initiate the clean drive application. I didn't even know what it was until I found it under the parallels utilities. Please understand that I think parallels is an excellent product and I'm not suggesting it's unsafe; but I thought the message was so unusual I should let you know.
