    Hi, I uninstalled parallels but there are 2 remnant parallels files that I want to remove. Parallels Shared Keychain and Parallels Desktop.
    I am concerned about deleting Parallels Shared Keychain - will deleting it harm my normal main mac keychain?
    Parallels Desktop has a permissions issue that prevents deletion. I will delete it but I was hoping for an easy way to do that.

    Hello,
    Deleting the Parallels Shared Keychain file should not harm your normal main Mac keychain, as it is a separate file that is only used by Parallels. However, before you delete the file, you may want to make a backup copy of it just in case.
    Kindly refer to this article for more info: https://download.parallels.com/desktop/v12/docs/en_US/Parallels Desktop User's Guide/41998.htm

    To uninstall Parallels Desktop from your Mac, kindly follow the steps in this article: https://kb.parallels.com/en/124255

    Thank you.
