Is there a workaround for this yet??? Parallels is completely broken on macOS Big Sur Public Beta 1 Build 20A5343j. The application will not even start. I have tried the workaround on the support page but as above, it just keeps asking me to reboot. We need a hotfix ASAP!!! I have asked to get...

Parallels 16 Tech Preview? How do you get access to that?

Glad I found this thread. Currently talking to Parallels support about this exact issue. I'm on PD Pro 15.1.4 and macOS 10.15.6. I have tried numerous times to install Insider Build 20175 and always get the same result. As with everyone else, it goes through the install but then freezes on...

It's using the Parallels Hypervisor. For now, I have had to completely disable nested virtualization in the VM configuration as it was having a negative impact on my VM, even if I wasn't using any nested virtualization applications.

I have been having performance issues with v15 in general. Sluggish behaviour. Slow startups. VM unusable for 5-10 minutes after starting up. I wrote about it in a reply to another post recently. But now on top of that, it seems that whenever you try to add any form of nested virtualization...

I have already tried this using the Windows development image. No difference. Still completely poor performance.

I'm nearly at the end of my tether with Parallels. I've always had both Parallels and WMware Fusion but the reason I have always primarily used Parallels is that they have some nice integration features over VMware and I also think the UI is laid out and bit better. And the performance...

Hi all, Anyone else seeing poor performance with anything that involves nested virtualization? Docker, WSL2, Ubuntu Multipass, Windows Sandbox etc... I tried Docker and Multipass ages ago but noticed such a dramatic drop in performance that I immediately uninstalled them. Now just run them on...

I think it's fair to say this year's release has been a complete car crash. Parallels need to do better. I reported this slow performance problem to them months ago. Their response was to DECREASE the amount of CPU's and RAM....? I'm on the new MBP 16, 8 CPU cores and 64GB RAM. So naturally...

Is there an update on this? I am about to buy an eGPU set up with the expectation it will boost my workstation performance. Coming across this post has now given me cause for concern. I am running 15.1.2. Do Parallels support the use of eGPU's as suggested here https://kb.parallels.com/124266 or...

I have had this setup for a long time. Never had any major issues. Since the High Sierra update though and Paralles Desktop 13, I am having what I consider to be major problems. To the point where I have had to buy a second/backup computer to carry about. I can't put my finger on the problem...

How can I do this? My latest Pro subscription has just expired. Parallels 13 has just been released which I have updated to. I'm current on 4 days left of my grace period. I have three Pro licenses as I run Parallels on three separate Macs and I want to switch to Business edition. How can I do...

OK. I have taken the plunge and added 2 more licences to my subscription. From within my account, I have created the Business. How can I change my pro licences over to Business?

Yes this would be on multiple machines. At least two separate Macs, and possibly a third Mac. So maybe business is the way to go for me then. The current licence I use on my Macbook Pro but I am looking at buying a secondary/travel/backup 12" Macbook. I will go for the custom top spec, 1.4Ghz...

Hi, I currently have a subscription for a single licence of Parallels Desktop Pro. I need to add another licence, potentially two. I do use Parallels for business use primarily. Is there any benefit to changing to the Business version? Is the software any different to the Pro? Does it cost any...

If the 25% means a lot to you then go for that. But if not just hang on for version 13. I have been buying/subscribing to Parallels for the past three years and the new version is pretty much always released around mid August. Around August 12th last year if I remember correctly? Parallels, like...

I also have the same issue. Extremely annoying. I use multiple VM's. WinXp, Win7, Win8.1 and Win10 and the problem is apparent across the board. I have submitted a support request. The VM just completely pauses during all OS X notifications until it dismisses. Then everything returns to normal...
