Update to Parallels 13 makes all shared drives read only in guest OS Mint 18.1

> Ok. Just make sure you're in a group which owns your home directory.

On the host or on the guest? I am still not having any luck after adding my user on the host to the group associated with my home directory. Do I need to grant group write access to everything in my home directory in order for parallels shared directory to work?

Host:
$ ls -ld /Users/bangelo/
drwxr-xr-x+ 66 bangelo staff 2244 Oct 7 09:00 /Users/bangelo/
$ id | tr ',' '\n' | grep staff
20(staff)​

Guest:
$ id
uid=1000(bangelo) gid=1000(bangelo) groups=1000(bangelo),20(dialout),24(cdrom),25(floppy),27(sudo),29(audio),30(dip),44(video),46(plugdev),108(netdev),111(bluetooth),118(scanner)
$ ls -ld /media/
drwxr-xr-x 5 root root 4096 Sep 29 09:13 /media/
$ ls -ld /media/psf
dr-xr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 Oct 7 09:02 /media/psf
$ ls -ld /media/psf/Home
drwxr-xr-x 1 bangelo nogroup 2244 Oct 7 09:00 /media/psf/Home
$ touch /media/psf/Home/test
