    When I drag an item from my Parallels shared folder (located on host macOS) to a folder in Windows 7 (located in Parallels guest virtual machine), the copied folder appears in green.

    After dragging the folder from the Mac to Windows 7, here's what I see. The red arrow indicates the direction of the drag. This resulted in a copy of "jeremy_shell.4dbase" placed in the "My Documents" folder.

    Why is the copy's name in green?
