Im setting up a mac os guest vm and have installed the guest os and parallels tools. I can see the shared drives folder. I would like to be able to access the time machine backup and restore it to the guest os vm. It appears there is not a way to mount the drive in a way that migration assistant recognizes. What am Im missing?

Hi RobS14. Please start the virtual machine, select Devices (from the Mac menu bar) -> USB & Bluetooth -> Device name to connect the Time Machine directly to the virtual machine and check whether you are able to restore the backup.
