    At least once a day, and every time I launch Parallels Desktop for Mac, it asks me to allow it to access data from other applications. I see no reason to allow this, and so far the lack of this permission has not hindered its operation. How do I make it stop asking this?
    Thanks,
    Scott

    No answers? Drat. I am getting the same message, and it re-appears no matter which way I answer it. Install a new update of Sonoma, and the message comes back. Close the virtual machine and Parallels, and restart - the message reappears.
    I'm also getting a message that seems to be from MacOS Sonoma that something about Parallels is incompatible with upcoming versions of MacOS.

    No answers, sadly. I'm not seeing any compatibility messages, though. Are you running the latest version of Parallels?

    Hello,

    Thank you for your feedback.

    Can you please share a screenshot of the pop-up?

    Also, please collect a technical report (right-click Parallels icon in Dock > Help > Send technical data > check "Attach screenshots..." > press Send Report) and send the report's 9-digit ID in a reply.

    Thank you!

    Is there a solution for this problem yet? It also happens with me, after updating Mac OS to the latest version. It's driving me nuts :)

    Same issue here. Parallels keeps asking for access multiple times every time I launch a VM.

    Maybe a small correction. Parallels wants access to my Documents folder and keeps asking over and over again when launching a VM. Since I have file access to the host system disabled, Parallels most definitely needs absolutely no access to my Documents folder. It has absolutely nothing to do there.

    This is a Parallels forum, right? Are there any Parallels employees present here? Any feedback would be nice!

    The answer is give parallels full disk access to your Mac and that fixes it. go to settings>privacy and security>full disk access>click the plus sign and add parallels app to full disk access.

    Thank you nickster2133! It was already there even, just needed me to toggle it to on, now I'll never have to see that warning again.
