Hey! I am trying to download SolidWorks for my Intro to MechE class, but I need a 64-bit system to run it. I have the 32 bit version of parallels, and I was wondering if I can upgrade to 64 and if so how because I am honestly just not great with computers. Thanks!
Hello @NatalieM1, Parallels Desktop is a 64 bit application. It's not possible to upgrade the virtual machine from 32 bit to 64 bit since the architecture differs. You may have to setup a 64 bit Windows virtual machine to run Solidworks. Please check out this KB to install Windows and ISO can be downloaded from Microsoft website.
