Parallels was running fine and then after a scheduled upgrade i receive the error -
"Unable to load Parallels driver. Restart your Mac and try again" and After you click OK you get another message: "Unable to start the virtual machine. An unexpected error occurred while starting the virtual machine. Contact the Parallels support team for assistance." And VM does not start.
I googled this problem and found this info -
Check if prl_hypervisor.kext is loaded.
sudo kextstat |grep prl
You can either load it or restart your Mac:
sudo kextload /System/Library/Extensions/prl_hypervisor.kext/
I am no computer expert but i have typed these into terminal and receive the following info -
Macintosh:~ Alex$ sudo kextstat |grep prl

Sorry, try again.

Macintosh:~ Alex$ sudo kextload /System/Library/Extensions/prl_hypervisor.kext/
kextload: /System/Library/Extensions/prl_hypervisor.kext: no such bundle file exists
can`t add kernel extension /System/Library/Extensions/prl_hypervisor.kext/ (file access/permissions) (run kextload on this kext with -t for diagnostic output)
Macintosh:~ Alex$
When i restart the computer i just get the same problem.
Please assist ASAP as I need to use Parallels for my work.
I dont know if this is relevant but I run Parallels through boot camp.
Many thanks
