    It seems to me that parallels wants to constantly and randomly switch between Window view (the one I want) to coherence, or full screen at random and inconsistent times with a mind of its own. I notice it happens especially when I am running GoToMeeting either on the host machine or on the virtual win 10 machine. It also seems to happen anytime that windows runs an update against itself, or when I update my host mac. It is getting really annoying. Am I the only experiencing this? Side note maybe it is due to dual monitor setup? I really don't know what is going on and want to know if it really is just me or if others are experiencing this behavior. Thanks

    Hi AndrewF4,
    Please follow the steps as suggested below:
    1. Start the Virtual Machine.
    2. Go to VM Configure(http://kb.parallels.com/117287)-> Options-> Full Screen-> Enable "Use All Displays in Full Screen"
    3. Go to VM Configure(http://kb.parallels.com/117287)-> Options-> Start up and shut down > Chose the way you want to start the virtual machine.
    4. Turn off the option "Displays have separate Spaces" in System Preferences-> Mission Control. Please note that this would affect all programs on Mac OS.
    5. Restart Windows and Restart Mac to check if the issue still persisting.
