    Hi,

    I'm running Sierra 10.12.14 and a trial of Parallels. I'm trying to run a program called ZXW from a dongle, it needs to be online to run so I think that may be the problem.
    Anyone run anything like this? Or any ideas on how to troubleshoot the problem to get it to run..

    Thanks in advance,
    Liam

    Hi LiamO,
    Have you created a Windows virtual machine to use in Parallels Desktop?

    Hi,
    Yes, paralles is working fine, just this one program. It won't boot.
    It requires a dongle and I have the dongle plugged in. At the bottom, in windows explorer it says
    "Offline Status - Online" - "Offline Availibility - Not Available"
    Has this something to do with it?
    Right now once I click to run the program, the loading wheel loads for a few seconds and just stops - I've tried to run in Admin mode too but no joy.

    Thanks again,
    Liam
     
  4. @LiamO and did you try to reinstall this app?

    I did. The version works fine on a Windows Machine but wont run on Parallels, its a deciding factor on me buying the software so I need it to work. Can I send you a Video of whats happening and maybe we can solve the issue that way..
     
  6. Sure, please send us a video. Looking forward to your reply.

    Ive just purchased Parallels to purely run the ZXW Dongle and it does not work. Is there anything that can be done to fix this?

    Hi @DharmveerS, connect your ZXW dongle directly to the virtual machine by following the steps suggested in this article and keep us posted the results.

    I have the same problem. Parallels works fine with mac all program is running well. But I downloaded setup for zxw tool and now It won't allow me to install. When I double click on .exe file nothing is happening.
