    I'm using Parallels Desktop 9, with Windows Server 2012 in a VM. The VM has a "shared" directory at the root C: to my Mac so that I can access all the files. I'm specifically using this VM for .NET development, so I'm primarily editing text files in Visual Studio 2013 in the VM, and then Sublime Text 3 on the Mac.

    There seems to be an issue that if a file is added or updated inside the VM (specifically in Visual Studio, often times when I get latest on my project), it doesn't notify my Mac if the file is changed. So the files look the same to Sublime Text, and if I save, it overwrites the changes. However if I close and re-open the file, I see the new changes.

    Is this a known bug? Any fixes available for it?

    Thanks!
