Parallels uncontrollably taking disk space! Help!

Bit poster
My parallels continues to use more and more disk space even though I haven't saved anything to windows. I have looked for snapshots but can't find any. I have also reclaimed some space, but parallels quickly took the space back. When windows runs, it continues to use more and more of the space I have freed up in order to run programs. Please help I am not sure what to do and my computer continue to not be able to operate when parallels uses all the space I have left. It current uses 116 GB of 250GB. When I first downloaded it, it was around 35 GB. Thanks!

I was able to clear a lot of storage, but it is still showing as space used on the parallels used space rather than free space on the Mac hard drive. How do I fix this?
Just one another question: Are you enable detailed logging?
Did you remove logs files?
