Windows 10 Coherence - Pop-up menus hidden

[MatthewA1]

Hi everyone,

I've been having issues with coherence. For some odd reason, the pop-up menus are always hidden BEHIND the window, making right-click context menus or Word/Excel pop-up menus always hidden and un-usable. I have to put windows in fullscreen for menus to work.

My setup is:

• OSX recently upgraded to El Capitan
• Parallels PRO 11
• Windows 10 virtual machine

Updates all installed in both OSX and W10. I've tried reinstalling Parallels Tools. Anyone has any idea? This is killing this awesome feature for me

Here's an image of the problem I'm talking about:

I'm still experiencing this problem with Parallels Desktop V19 with a Windows 11 VM.

Hello,

thank you for your feedback.

Please take screenshot of the issue and collect a technical report (right-click Parallels icon in Dock > Help > Send technical data > check "Attach screenshots..." > press Send Report) and send the report's 9-digit ID in a reply.

Thanks

Hello,

As per the technical report, it'a copied virtual machine and Parallels tools is not installed.

Can you please install Parallels Tools and retry?

For more information on how to install Tools, please go to the link https://kb.parallels.com/en/115835

Let us know the outcome.

thanks

I reinstalled Parallels tools (there was no option install, only reinstall).
This did not fix the problem. I generated and uploaded a new report. The 9-digit ID is:

The new window will be displayed below the parent window, also the popup menu. This problem appeared after upgrading to macOS14. My report id is 433396248.

I have the same problem. I am tired of parallels support ...... they don´t fix the problem in new versions. it is frustrating.

It has been solved in version 19.4
Thank you Parallels Development Team !!!!

Wow, this thread goes back to 2015 and apparently there are still regressions. I don't find that convincing. In any case, I regret buying Parallels because I was primarily interested in the Coherence mode. It's unbelievable that it still has the same problems after 10 years. That's not how you achieve customer loyalty.
