    I have a friend who is a Windows person - not very computer literate.
    He uses Parallels on a Mac Mini for his Windows virtual machine.
    He constantly and accidentally gets himself into the Mac side of his computer, and can't figure out how to get back to the Windows side, in spite of repeated attempts to teach him how simple it is.

    Can I configure Parallels for him, so that it acts like Bootcamp, so that once it loads, he cannot possibly access the Macintosh side?

    Hi robertlob, you can set Parallels virtual machine to occupy your entire screen, so it looks just like it would if you were using a Windows PC. In Full Screen mode, Mac OS X and all of the Parallels Desktop controls are hidden. Please check out this article to know more information about how to enter and exit Full screen mode in Parallels Desktop.
