Problems with floppy disk

Hello,
I just bought a new mac and I discovered that the floppy disk can read but can not write.
I usually work before with another Mac via Parallels in Windows XP and i hadn't problems but when I buy the new one, and install the latest version of Parallels I've noticed that the floppy disk fails.
I work with windows os with a design program that must pass the information to a 3 1/2 disk and from there to a weaving machine so the use of the floppy drive is necessary because the machine has no other input method .
Can somebody help me??
Thanks a lot
 
Hello Jorge,
By default Floppy Disk is disabled in Parallels Desktop 11.
In order to add Floppy Drive manually kindly follow the steps below:
-> Actions -> stop VM
-> Open your Windows virtual machine's Configuration -> Hardware -> +( Add) -> Floppy Disk
-> Choose Source -> Physical floppy drive
For more information please refer to this article.
Thanks.
 
It doesn't work...
I work with an USB Floppy drive and I tried with a physical drive and with an image but it never works...
Finally, I downgrade to Parallels 10 and everything works fine.
Can I return that update? can I get my money back?
