    I'm using Parallel Desktop 17 with a MacBook Pro M1 Max chipset. I loaded Parallel and Windows 11 ARM without any issue. I've noticed that I have an iCloud drive in File Explore which is syncing documents to iCloud. I don't want to share any documents between Windows and Mac. How do I turn this function off for Windows? Also, can I just delete the iCloud folder?

    Thank you for the response. I followed you steps, but the "share" option is not active. Is there something else I need to check?

    Thanks,
