    Hi,
    There is no "Show Hard Disk Contents..." menu.
    I need to copy my data from old intel mac to M1.

    Right-click the virtual machine > select Show Hard Disk Contents on the old virtual machine(.pvm) which was copied to the M1 mac and not on the new Windows 10 ARM virtual machine
    i resolved it. Thanks.

    I can't find the "Show hard disk contents" menu either. I need to copy files from my old Windows 7 vm. I am right-clicking on the old vm, but still only get the "Show in Finder" menu.

    I'm having the same issue. If I right-click my old virtual machine image, I don't see any option to "Show hard disk contents"

    Is there any workaround or fix?

    I couldn't get the "Show hard disk contents" option, I'm using the latest Parallels 17 version, but I was able to mount the old windows disks manually using Finder. Just follow these instructions:
    https://kb.parallels.com/en/118738

    - Use Finder, go to your Parallels VM
    - Show Package Contents.
    - right click on the HDD image
    - select "Open with" > "parallels mounter"
