    I'm successfully running Parallels 11.2.2 using Sierra as a host O/S. My only guest O/S is an instance of Mac El Captain.

    I'd like to upgrade my host (not guest) to High Sierra which leads a man to ask: Can I continue to run The Captain as a guest OS on a host of HighSierra running Parallels 11.2.2 ? Does Parallels 11 even run on High Sierra at all?

    I don't mind upgrading to Parallels to v13 but after seeing what an absolute train wreck Parallels 12 was, I'm a bit reticent. Is v11 still considered by users to be the only stable/usable version of Parallels, or is v13 proving to be an effective host?

    Any recommendations appreciated.

    Hi @DavidS13 , Parallels Desktop 11 is not compatible to work with Mac Os X high Sierra. Please purchase the upgrade to Parallels Desktop 13 for Mac which is compatible.
