Using Auto-Pause after Inactivity question

[SteveH14]

When I manually chose the Pause Command the open windows darken somewhat.
When I just stop using Windows for longer than the 15 minutes I've chosen they do not.

Is the Auto-Pause working ?

Thanks

Hello, what if your Parallels Desktop version? Did you try to reinstall Parallels Tools and check the issue?

Running PD 16.1.3
I did not have Parallels Toolbox installed.
After installing it the open windows still do not darken.

Parallels Tools and Parallels Toolbox are different.
Parallels Tools is a Parallels Desktop component.
Please check this link and reinstall Parallels Tools.

So I uninstalled Parallels Toolbox.
Then - I reinstalled Parallels Tools. My Bad.
Still not dimming however.
I assume inactivity pertains to using Windows apps (Quicken) in the VM only. I'm still using open Mac apps.
I wouldn't mind having a "Suspend after Inactivity" option while it's on my mind.
Thanks
