    Hi all,

    I've a big problem with Win8 since a few days.
    The VM starts to the Login Screen. After Login the desktop starts not correct, I only see a dark blue screen, sometimes the desktop seems to start correctly but I can´t start anything.
    I tried to start older versions of my Win8 VM (Time Machine), I tried a fresh new setup (Win8), I tried an old VM with Win7.
    A new installation of parallels 9 doesn´t solve this problem.
    It´s very frustrating.

    Has anyone an idea or maybe the same problems?
    Cheers
    Marco

    i had same problems with PD9 WIN8.1. even I tried PD10 trial version, it's same. the problem comes from sharing fold between OS X and WIN. Configuration --"Option"--"sharing"-- if sharing fold is "only Home Fold", and no click in "sharing WINDOWS with MAC user folds ", everything is fine.

    I assume it's related with Apple OS X, key updates several days ago for some important leaks, not allowing other software to share USER fold anymore.

    PD should act at once!

    I tried Yosemite 10.10.0 - and it works!
    I tried a clean install directly from the apple store (10.10.2) with backup of my VM from time machine and the problem exists again.
    So it´s a new problem coming up with the release 10.10.2.
    Still waiting for an update from Parallels...
