Macbook fan goes nuts after starting Windows

Hello,
Just by starting Windows 11 in Parallels Desktop 19.2.1 (I'm not running anything there besides Windows itself), makes my macbook fan runs like crazy.
If I shutdown Windows and close Parallels they soon get back to silent.

Before Parallels 19 I never noticed such high speed fan. If I let my Windows on, it keeps the fan at 100% the whole day. This is super annoying.

Anyone facing this and tips to troubleshoot it?

Thank you.

My specs:
=================================
Macbook Pro, 15-inch 2019
Intel Core i7, 2,6 Ghz
Radeon Pro 555X-4Gb / Intel UHD 630 - 1536Mb
16Gb 2400 MHz DDR4
Sonoma 14.3.1

Parallels VM configuration:
CPU&Memory : Automatic (6 CPUs, 8Gb RAM and up to 4Gb for graphics)
Graphics: Scaled + Always use High Performance Graphics
Windows 11 Pro N (latest updates)
 
Hello,
Same issue for me as well: Macbook Pro Intel with Ventura and Windows 10 VM. Parallels version 19.3.0. In addition: Windows black screen when not used for a while + Windows screen autoscale... it's going worse and worse... Experience is becoming unacceptable.
