Disable Pause in Parallels Desktop 14

Hi SeanBB. May I know the guest OS version for which you are trying to disable the pause option?
Since this person did not reply, I will, with the same problem. I'm using PD14 on an iMac running Mojave. I have a Sierra VM (to run FileMaker Pro Advanced 11 and 13, which won't operate under Mojave, and are still needed to support some clients). Some of these databases are slow to connect to, and will disconnect if the VM pauses, which it does automatically. How do I prevent the VM from pausing, ever? I've poked through every control I can find - I want it to stay open and active and connected to those FM databases. Sometimes I am waiting for a client's reply before proceeding, and when I get my answer, I switch back to Sierra in the VM, and it's gone and paused itself, and disconnected the database I need to work on. Then I have to go through the process of reconnecting - slow for some outdated hosts. Help!
MacOS 10.4.3
Is there no solution to this problem? I have the same issue with pausing and it applies to both the VMs I have installed - Windows 10 and Android 8. Both pause when I want them kept alive.

Hi, when you VMs pause? Without any reasons? Please check the VM config for option "pause windows as possible"
(you can find it in Options -> Applications)
Please untick (if it was chosen) it and check the issue

MacOS vms don't have this option.
If your MacOS Vm paused without any apparent reason, please generate the problem report using this KB article and reply us back with the report ID
