I have never seen a piece of software with such a wealth of useless information and zero helpful info on how to actually use the program on the Internet and elsewhere. Can anyone point me to anything that can help me figure out how to use Parallels? A YouTube video, a help document, quick start guide, whatever. It's all just how to install on M1 or some other worthless subject, like how great it supposedly is. I already kinda hate this software and company from reading their policies on support and whatnot. I have been using computers and software for decades and this program is not very intuitive or user friendly imo. Anyway, thanks in advance for any help given. I'm on a non M1 IMac from 2019 running Catalina, 40 gigs of Ram, just trying to run some old windows and Dos games with my kid. Not trying to do anything too heavy. Thanks again, Kirk
