Hello, I am facing an issue, and I feel stupid not being able to figure it out because it's so simple. I have some AppleScript that I launch from my Mac with a Loupedeck to open a web page in a Windows 11 VM. I used the simple script found in the parallels doc: tell application "Google Chrome" activate open location "https://parallels.com/" end tell It was working perfectly until yesterday. Now, it starts Chrome on my Mac, not in the Windows VM anymore. And the only thing I have done since yesterday is just update the toolbox on the VM... Does anybody have any idea how to fix that ?? Thanks in advance for your help.
I think that's because Parallels Desktop doesn't have a dedicated suite anymore: Compare that to BetterZip, for example:
Your AppleScript may not work due to macOS security updates, VM settings, or script issues. Fixes: Enable Permissions: Go to System Settings → Privacy & Security → Accessibility Allow Script Editor & VMware Fusion Check Automation permissions Update Script (Add Delay & Focus VM) tell application "VMware Fusion" activate delay 2 tell application "System Events" keystroke "t" using command down delay 1 keystroke "https://example.com" keystroke return end tell end tell Use VM Command Line (Alternative Fix) For Windows VM: tell application "VMware Fusion" do script "Start-Process 'chrome.exe' 'https://example.com'" in guest end tell For Linux VM: tell application "VMware Fusion" do script "firefox https://example.com &" in guest end tell Test and let me know if issues persist!
