    Hi There

    Bit of a stupid question but upgrade to Parallels 11 and now when I try to get into my windows machine I am having trouble logging into the VM.

    My windows machine has the character "#" in the password, in Parallels 10 I used to get round this by opening the Charachter Map on my mac and clicking on the # to add it into my paassword, however this is now not working. Trying to do alt and number 3 also doesn't work.

    Any ideas how I can get round this?

    @SimonP2 does it work on the Mac side?
    Also as a workaround you may use this KB and change Windows login password.
