    MBP 16 Max, Win11, UT2004, USB keyboard gets stuck within Windows only

    Game works perfectly 99.9% of the time, but occasionally my keyboard stops working and the last key I was pressing remains permanently active. Most of the time this is the W key, since it is the key to move forward. Once this problem occurs, it cannot be fixed even if I unplug and plug the...

    Alt-` not working with dead keys

    Gnome uses Alt/Command-` to switch between windows of the same application, like MacOS. However, it does not work on Parallels with a dead keys keyboard. It works on qemu, and it's the last issue I have with Parallels now that virgl support is in. I looked at xev and the combo is not even...

    Cursor and keyboard not working

    The cursor is completely invisible and not working in the windows 11 vm, same thing with keyboard commands. It is not frozen, because some programs that usually start upon its launch are still opening automatically. I tried restarting and resetting, but nothing is working.

    I'm looking to buy a stream deck to use it in combination with a Windows-only app (grandMA2 onPC) that I'm running on my M1 Mac through Parallels 17 (running Windows 10).

    Cannot use keyboard after restoring to snapshot (PD17)

    After upgrading to Parallels Desktop 17, if you restore to a snapshot with a running OS (either windows or macOS), you are unable to type in the VM. Mouse events work, but keyboard appears to be disconnected. We've seen this on VMs running Windows 10 and macOS Big Sur - with the parallels...

I am a programmer, so it's pretty important that the bindings are similar to the ones I'm used to. Or at least efficient. So far I managed to bind so that the option key is the windows...

    What I want to do is: Assign play/pause, next track, previous track keys (the ones that happen when F7,F8 and F9 on magic keyboard are pressed without fn) to a media player on VM (which is Windows 10 in my case).
