    Yup, I am on the latest release (I did check for updates, and it was already current - see attached), and it failed the same way again.

    Hi, could you please choose Apple HV at the VM configuration, then reproduce the issue and collect new tech report.
    Looking forward to your reply and new tech report's ID.

    i happen to just do this where my computer updated to the big sur and parallel isnt supported in that and apple support wouldnt help since it is a 3rd party app however what i did was uninstall the parallels and then whnt to parallel website for troubleshooting and i instead downloaded parallel 15 not the 16 and now so far it is good and up and running hope this helps people!!

    I am running 16.1.0 with big sur full installation on a MacBook Pro 13" and parallels wont load up, it is constantly stuck on the starting screen.... I have gone back to 15 and that was the same so reinstalled up to 16.1.0 ..... cannot get windows to run. I use this for business to run SAGE accounts and it is now extremely disappointing and frustrating

    Hello,
    If you decide to investigate the issue, could you collect the tech report once the issue reproduced and post the report's ID here?

    I am on Big Sur Public release, and have already uninstalled Virtual Box. I still get the following error message:

    To start the virtual machine, please restart your Mac first.
    It has not been restarted after the Parallels Hypervisor System Extension was allowed.

    I am running Parallels v16.0.1 (48950), and have tried to keep it current. However, it still doesn't, so I have to rely on VMware Fusion to run Windows apps on my Mac (at least it's free). I am very close to just "giving up" on Parallels, and will not recommend it to any of my Mac clients until this somehow gets resolved.

    Well, I finally found instructions online to make changes to my CPU and memory, and that fixed the problem.
