    I am running Parallels 10.1.1 under OS X.X.1 on an iMac. While running Windows 8.1, if I walk away from the computer for several hours, the Parallel VM becomes unresponsive. It will not respond to key presses, mouse clicks, its. Parallels itself is not frozen. I can use the dropdown keyboard menu to send a control-alt-delete and there is no response. I cannot shutdown or restart the VM only reset, pause or suspend. I obviously can save my work before walking away. It does not alway become unresponsive, but it can and it does happen (three times so far).

    Happened again just now. Right after creating a snapshot. Easy cure hopefully. Stop Snapshots.
