I followed the instructions here: https://kb.parallels.com/en/123968

But its not working. I do not think there is anything for me to do as it seems somethings are passing the wrong arguments. See Bold Below.

Same issue. It happens from time to time when Kali is changing lot of
stuff spec. regarding the kernel.

Please, //Desktop peoples, try to follow much more closely the Kali distribution.
Indeed, for Mac users, //Desktop is one of the best virtualization environment
and for security engineers, Kali is one of te best distribution.

So, as a security engineer working on Mac, I'm quite disapointed.

W/ my best regards,

Same problem here. I see this problem was first reported 6 months ago. Has there been any progress?
Thank you.
