    Parallels 13.1.1 on Mac 10.11.6(El Capitan). When editing a file stored the guest (Win7), using MSWord on the host (Mac El Capitan), the file opens as "Read Only." How may I correct this so I can save the file without having to rename it each time I save it?

    Hi DLAnderson,
    Please make sure Parallels tools are updated, also check to make sure that you have your permissions in the word doc to allow for editing.
