Greetings folks- I have a Ubuntu 18.04 VM that runs on one of my Catalina 10.15.1 machines. On the macOS side, I use iCloud to host my Documents and Desktop. On the VM side I request to share the home directory. On the unix side, I _appear_ to have read-write permissions on my Downloads...

I have recently upgraded to Catalina, and am running Parallels 14.1.3. Previously, if I double clicked on (say) an Excel attachment in Apple Mail.,this would open in Excel running under Parallels. Now I get the following message box: In my Configuration, the setting is to share All Discs...
