    After I re-installed my bootcamp by the latest macOS High Sierra, Parallels Desktop can't detect or recognize bootcamp from installation assistant menu.
    Even if I tried the steps by the link http://kb.parallels.com/en/116235, there is no selectable bootcamp disk from Source drop-down list.
    Please fix this issue as soon as possible.
    Thanks

    Got mine working.....it failed to work after upgrade - a previously setup parallels VM of Bootcamp.
    Removed the VM so I could set up from scratch - then discovered I could not add Bootcamp anymore. So I was stuck.....tried everything no success.

    then I tried accessing my time machine backup pre-upgrade to sierra. Moved the Parallels VM into high sierra /documents/parallels/
    Tried it and it booted up fine.

    Does not help unless you had a previously working parallels VM (before upgrade to High sierra).......but may help others if they get the same corruption I did after upgrade.

    Me too... I deleted the .PVM file to create the virtual machine again and also tried the walkthrough of the http://kb.parallels.com/en/116235 link. Nothing detects the BootCamp HDD. My OSX High Sierra also ...

    Hello All, please follow as suggested below:

    Disable System Integrity Protection (SIP).

    1.Restart the Mac, on Apple logo loading screen press CMD + R to boot into Recovery.
    2.In Recovery, on Mac menu bar locate Utilities menu > open Terminal application.
    3.Type in the commands below one-by-one:

    csrutil disable

    reboot

    4.Back in a normal mode remove the existing machine or create the new one, depending on the customer's scenario.
    5.Boot macOS into Recovery again and enable SIP back running the following Terminal commands:

    csrutil enable

    reboot.

    Please see if this works. Thanks!
