    Hello,
    today I used find duplicates for the first time (macOS Big Sur 11.2, Parallels Toolbox 4.0.1 3447).

    When I try to delete duplicate photos, I get the message "access denied, files could not be removed, access is being denied". That sounds like I have to set a permission somewhere (checked system settings, security tab), but I don't know where. Any idea what to do? Your help is very much appreciated!
    Best regards,
    Olaf

    Hello,
    Please verify that the following permissions are enabled on your Mac:

    1.1. Accessibility: Parallels Toolbox requires this permission to use Accessibility features to control the computer's applications by using the app on the mobile device.
    (Apple logo > System Settings > Security & Privacy > Accessibility > Parallels Toolbox should be checked)

    1.2. Full Disk Access: Parallels Toolbox requires this permission in order to provide functionality in File Manager: to browse, view, and open files on a mobile device that are located on the remote computer.
    (Apple logo > System Settings > Security & Privacy > Full Disk Access > Parallels Toolbox should be checked)
