Just upgraded to PD18 and install Win11 ARM with Parallels Tools from fresh. Windows showed 8 bit color depth. Tried many ways incl. reinstall parallels tools but failed. Anyone has the same issue ?
I'm experiencing exactly the same issue, i'm struggling to see any possible way of changing this in any of the windows or parallels settings. I wouldn't be too bothered but it makes everything look really bad - especially any gradients make me feel like i'm using windows 98!
This 8-bit color depth is per channel, i.e. each of red, green and blue color components are 8-bit wide. To verify pixel size, click "Display adapter properties for Display 1" and press "List all modes" button. A pop-up will show up with selection indicating current mode.
I raised this as I saw banding on the background image on Windows 11. Having sense checked, i'm definitely seeing more than 256 colours. The list all modes is displayed as 32-bit colour and viewing gradients from various sources, it's clear this isn't an issue... I blame poor quality Windows 11 backgrounds!!
Hello. I'm suffering from the exact same problem you had. Have you fixed the color depth to 32 bit? Please Please Please let me know how you did it.. T^T
