I am on Parallels 12.2.1, running Windows 10 on a late-2013 iMac (Sierra 10.12.6), and suddenly have been getting an error when running Windows:

"An error occurred while accessing the Hard Disk 0"

At this point, the VM is locked, and I have to stop it in order to continue on.
Using DiskUtility, I have determined that the Mac HD does not have errors. Since this Windows issue came up, I purchased Paragon NTFS for Mac and have been able to repair all minor errors that are found on the Bootcamp partition.

Unclear where to go next; should I try a repair of Windows 10? Reinstall? Wipe the partition and start over? Any and all advice would be appreciated.
 
I too am on Parallels 12 running Windows 10. I get this error every 4 - 5 months. I have tried all the remedies provided in various KB and none of them ever work. The only "solution" that works is to uninstall Parallels, Windows 10 and any software I have installed on Windows 10, and start all over again I have now done this at least five times and enough is enough. Unless someone can provide a solution that works and stays working, I will abandon Parallels and buy a cheap Windows laptop. So far, my expereince with Parallels has been one of pleasure when it is working, puntuated with total frustration when it fails and a great deal of time and effort to get back to a working model.
