    Hello,

    I have a Macbook pro with Parallels 8 with the latest version (8.0.18345) with Windows 7 Enterprise with all the latest updates.

    Under Configuration > Sharing, I have have 'Share Mac user folders with Windows' (and everything else checked). I use this computer for work so each night, I will shut down the VM and take the battery home where I use it for the night. I usually don't bring my charger since I tend to have enough battery life for the evening.

    Every morning, when I log in, I get a prompt in regards to mapping the Mac user directories to the Windows directory and have to restart the Windows VM.

    Is this standard behavior? I anticipated this would only need to happen the FIRST time I enabled this feature, but it happens every single time.

    Thanks

    Anybody know if this is expected behavior or should this not be happening?
