    Hello,

    Fn-F6 does not work:
    - Sometimes it shows Parallels control center, not Windows Full Screen (when pressing from within Mac OS)
    - Sometimes it does not do anythiing, just the mouse pointer changes) (when pressing from within Mac OS)

    What does work however:
    - Clicking the Windows Icon that shows up on the Mac OS task bar, to show Windows Full Screen
    - Clicking (or pressing a previously-assigned keyboard shortcut) an link to some windows app that shows up in the auto-generated folder on Mac and that is accessible via Mac OS task bar.
    - Clicking or (pressing a previously-assigned keyboard shortcut) from the parallels shared applications folder withing windows, to show an app within Mac OS.

    ===>
    My goal is that I want to have a keyboard shortcut that, when pressed in MacOS, reliably shows Windows (which is always in full screen in my case, i never have it in a different state).
    Showing MacOS via shortcut is not a big deal, I just press command-tab.

    Thank you for help.

    Is it possible to create an Alias OUTSIDE of the pvm container that links to Windows.App (which is located within the pvm container)?
