    Hello there,
    first I wanna post my solution for my problem and second I wanna rant about the Parallels support.
    After my last update from Parallels I had an issue with the mouse in Auto-CAD.
    Before that it worked perfectly fine. So I tried all the different mouse settings in the parallels configuration.
    So if I used the Setting "optimized for gaming" I couldnt reach some dropdown menus.
    In Auto-CAD you can move over a line without clicking and you get a dropdown menu.
    But if you wanna choose an option, your mouse moves to the other side of the screen and the drop down menu is gone.
    With the Setting "not optimized for gaming" it always zoomed in and out at the same time when I was scrolling with the mouse wheel.
    So if you have this issue here is my solution.
    Go with the setting "not optimized for gaming".
    Then under Windows press "WIN + R" - Then you type in "regedit".
    Now you have to search for this path: HKEYLOCALMACHINE/SYSTEM/CurrentControlSet/Enum/HID
    In the HID Folder there are several files called Device Parameters.
    In two of them you have to click on the "FlipFlopWheel" and set the number on 1.
    Then you have to restart and should be fine. That worked for me.
    And now to my second Point. Thank you for nothing Parallels support.
    Mohammed Imteshal was not supportive at all. He never texted back and I had to wait so long that I found the solution myself in the meantime.
    And the best of it is, that he doenst even gave a shit for the solution. I explained him how I solved it to maybe help some other people with the same problem,
    and midway he just said, well yeah we are finished right because you have no more issues?
    He didnt even care. Just copy pasta some standard troubleshooting in the chat and if someone finds a real solution, just dont care. nice.

    Okay rant over. I hope I can help anyone with this.
    Greetings.
