M4, latest Win11 and Parallels. I have not found a way to make Control + Tab behave like CTRL + Tab in browsers on Win11 i.e. to swtich browser tabs. It works in Coherence Mode but not Full Screen or windowed. I changed between these three send shortcuts settings but none have an effect. Is...

Hi. On my M2 I can see Touchpad under Bluetooth & Devices. On my M4 I cannot. Both devices run the latest Parallels and Win 11. I canot find a difference in settings. Has this changed from M2 to M4?

Technical Report ID 486554514 I'm trying to set up a new Windows 11 VM. It downloads the Windows installer, then displays this: Computer: MacBook Pro, 16-inch, Nov 2023, Apple M3 Pro macOS version: 15.3.2 (24D81) Parallels version: Version 20.2.2 (55879)

This feature was added and works very well, but currently, it is only for login. It would be exceptionally helpful, for example, to be able to use Touch ID for authentication within Windows - such as for 1Password or other apps that require PIN (or otherwise Windows Hello-based authentication)...

Hi, I'm still using Parallels 18 on an Intel-based Mac running with Monterey. The virtual machines are Windows 10 and Mac Sierra. I expect to upgrade my system to a Mac mini M4 Pro with Sequoia soon, and have to plan an upgrade of Parallels and the virtual machines. - If I install Parallels 20...

Hello everybody, I have a usb driver running successful on my M4 macMini, but no driver for running the same devices on Win11 on parallels. So I can't use the possibility of passthrough that usb connection to the virtual machine. Is there any possibility to use the macOs driver directly from the...

Literally since yesterday, Windows 11 has started running impossibly slow. Unusable. Software is either hanging or crashing. Is there a known issue with the latest Parallels? Have any other users had this happen? Windows has 16GB RAM and 8 CPUs, so I don't see why performance should be a problem.

I have macOS 15.3.2 (24D81) and Parallels Version 20.2.2 (55879) installed on a MacBook Air M2, running a Windows 11 virtual machine with version 23H2 22631.4890. After upgrading the VM to 24H2, my Citrix sessions started having major display issues, making it almost impossible to use Citrix...

Install error - 0x800f081f I was getting the same thing with 2025-02 for a month. Was hoping the 2025-03 would resolve this. Anyone else seeing this? Last time I had this issue I think it required a Parallels update to resolve.

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"...

I am running Inventor 2025 on Parallels 20.2.2 (Sequia 15.3.1), Windows 11 ARM (Pro) and when print previewing, printing to PDF and printing to physical paper the fonts are being swapped. I have been in contact with AutoDesk and into my conversations as soon as I mentioned VM, they shortly...

Parallels Desktop 20.2.0 VM Windows 11 Pro (multiple versions tested) Apple M1 Max, OS Sonoma. After upgrading to Parallels Desktop 20, Solidworks graphics performance in "Shaded with Edges" mode takes a massive hit, becoming essentially unusable. Models/assemblies rotate and zoom fine in...

The Xbox controller is not working on MacOS Sequoia Beta 15.4. Although it is recognized in 'Joy.cpl', the buttons and axes do not actually move. I understand that it is difficult for Parallels to support the Beta update. However, I hope we can resolve this issue in preparation for the April...

I just updated to the Sequoia 15.4 Beta and now when I try and launch my Windows 11 Arm image in Parallels Desktop 20.2.1 I get an instant computer reboot. Everything was working fine in Sequoia 15.3 Beta.

Will not offer to update to the latest version of Windows 11. Why not? The option in Settings of Windows 11 tells me there is a newer version of Windows 11, but there is no option up install it. On my real Windows machine, that option did show and install.

I am new to Parallels. I've setup a new Win 11 machine and I started with a 256G virtual disk. After a couple of days of installing and copying files, I then expanded it to 512G (using Parallels Hardware for the VM). I've just gotten a message in Windows that I'm running out of disk space...

I am running: host OS: macOS Sequoia 15.3 Parallels Desktop 20.2.0 Pro Edition Windows 11 24H2 guest OS When the Windows VM is in Coherence mode, the Windows system tray icons show up in the macOS menu bar as expected. However, whenever an M365 app (Teams, Outlook, OneNote, ...) restarts /...

Hi, I'm trying to toggle between English and Korean on my Windows 11 VM. I normally use cap locks to switch between my input language on my Mac, but it doesn't let me switch the same way on my Windows VM. I tried to use the language bar and added the language from my Windows settings, but it...

Hello, when using an external mouse in Windows 11 with Parallels, my scrolling is bugged. When I scroll up (or down), it immediately scrolls in the opposite direction. I used different mice from different brands but the issue persists. Unfortunetely I could not find any solution in different...

I am unable to complete the installation of Windows 11 for use. After the download and installation process finishes, it always shows the blue screen of death. Previously, the installation went smoothly, but after upgrading macOS to Sonoma, the installation broke. I dont want to be rude but...
