Hello! I bought parallels and have been charged in the past. However, it keeps asking me to buy it again. I also realized my professor has a student version of parallels and was wondering if you could help me with it.

Thank yoU!

Hey Alexandria, Thanks for reaching out. Yes exactly. You can install Windows in a VM with Parallels Desktop. There are multiple ways: You can install Windows from a DVD or an .iso disc image, or a bootable USB drive. Check out this article for further information: Thanks and have a nice day.

I have had windows for years. My subscription expired with the Windows 7 (?) I currently bought a new computer and installed Parellels. Is it possible to upgrade the old license key for the Windows 10?,, or do I need to start over.

I run windows on my mac with parallel desktop and i would like to know if you can run SOPHOS for Mac for the mac side if i have Parallels Internet Security installed on the Windows side of my mac, just like to check before i do it.

Since Parallels runs your Windows software inside a virtual machine, there should be no issues as long as Sophos isn't scanning the contents of your Parallels volume. Problems only arise when two or more AV solutions coexist on the same file system(s). If they're logically in different places and aren't scanning the same file set (or each other), then you should be fine.

I'm using Windows 7, Parallels, on a Mac with OS10.82 and would like to know if SOPHOS will work as an anti virus software. If so which dowlnload should I use? I see one for Mac but I don't see one for Mac and Windows using Parallel? Also, where would I find the correct download of SOPHOS?

If a single user version of SOPHOS for home use becomes available I would be very interested. I would like to find something for $100 or less that could be purchased on an annual basis for my Mac/windows with parallels system. Perhaps this will be an option in the future.

Had some issues with my LC's calibration so I had to get Fanatec Driver to recalibrate, I'm running a M1 Pro Macbook with Parallels and Windows 10 ARM (21H1). I can't get the Driver to install properly, keep getting the error message "There is a problem with this Windows Installer package." (Screenshot below).

Tried several versions, 423, 410, 402, no dice. Fanalab installs w/o issues. Tried with and w/o wheel plugged in, can't seem to get it through. Had to revert to my Mid 2012 MBP and Parallels with normal 64-bit Win10, where it installed first try, unless its a problem with just this Virtual Machine, Parallels should work. So my question, will this work on an ARM Windows? It should run it fine with its own emulation, anyone have any experience with this?

+1 I was having the same issues running parallels windows 11 arm, and I got the same error in crossover too. However, in crossover, I was able to get it to run by using a 32 bit bottle... the only problem being that I couldn't get any of my games to run in this 32 bit bottle.

All, I have not checked if an ARM version is working or not.... So I have bought the latest Parallels with Windows 11 Home and get the same Error Message as shown above! Is there any update or maybe a BETA I can use?

Hello,

I'm a relative newcomer to the Mac, running the m1 chip in particular.

I see that Parallels desktop is the main option at the moment for virtualising windows as well as other operating systems, however it appears to be completely inaccessible.

Have any Voiceover users had luck getting this set up and have any tips for same?

Thanks,

I'm still using my 2011 macbook pro with bootcamp, and it's still working like a champ, especially with the 2TB drive that got installed about 2 years ago. Anyway, I know that sooner or later, I'll have to get a new computer, and I've been so impressed with Mac hardware that even though I still do most things in Windows, I'd never consider buying anything but a mac. I was really excited when the new M1 macs came out until I learned that Bootcamp was no longer an option. I was hopeful that maybe Windows 11 would improve things whenever it is officially released, but it doesn't seem as though that's going to be the case. So, like this original poster, I am very curious with regards to the accessibility of Parallels using VoiceOver. I tried using VMWare Fusion back in 2012, I believe, and it was not a good experience; lost JAWS authorizations constantly, and it was far too sluggish to actually be useable. That's why I prefer bootcamp, but if that's no longer a viable option, I'm curious what options I may have that would be comparable in functionality.

Hello, I've been using PD since 2014 and it works pretty well after the struggle of the installation is over. You can do most of the maintenance etc. things via the Terminal , Bash commands. PD's graphical UI is mostly inaccessible due to its graphical design and element libraries. Its performance in use is very efficient when compared to VM Ware or other rivals. Be aware that you need at least 16 gb of RAM to run Win10 with screenreaders smoothly with Parallels. Same applies to WM Ware as well.

Hi Znd,

That's good to hear re getting this to work after installation.

I don't suppose you have any tips/strategies as far as getting through installation with VO as that is where I am currently stuck?

Cheers.

Parallels is well known for its Mac product, version 16 of which was released in August, which is Windows running on a virtual machine with deep integration, particularly Coherence Mode which runs Windows invisibly in the background so the application runs on the Mac desktop.

Features of the integration include the ability to open files on Chrome OS with a Windows application, suspend and resume the Windows VM to save resources when not in use and avoid full Windows reboots on startup, an option to run full screen, shared clipboard, and printing from Windows.

Parallels will not be available to all Chromebook users, only to Chrome Enterprise. Customers will be paying both Parallels and Microsoft for this integration; it is not a cheap option. The system requirements are:

Admins need to prepare a Windows image based on the official Windows 10 ISO file, and include Parallels Tools. This is then exported as a ZIP file and made available as a download for users. Admins apply Parallels licences in the Google admin console, following which licensed users can install by running the Parallels Desktop app from the Chromebook launcher. After that, it is Windows and can be domain-joined or added to Azure AD and managed through Group Policy or InTune in the normal way.

The user experience is not as seamless as is the case with Parallels for Mac. Users run Windows applications from the Windows VM, and there is no ability to shove it into the background. That said, Windows user folders are exposed to Chrome OS under the "My files" directory, and to go the other way, users can right-click a Chrome OS folder and choose "Share with Parallels Desktop". A Keyboard menu lets users send key combinations to the VM, including the famed Ctrl-Alt-Delete.

There are a few key reasons why organisations adopt Chrome OS, these being the security of a locked-down, auto-updated operating system, low cost for environments like education, and the best integration with Google Workspace (formerly G Suite).

The Parallels product will not appeal to the budget-conscious, but it is a solution for users who need to run Windows locally, perhaps to have access to custom business desktop applications, or to run Microsoft Office locally in order to experience the full joy of Excel. There could still be a cost saving if only a minority of users require this.

Now with the option of Windows via Parallels, Chrome OS has become a flexible four-in-one OS: native Chrome OS, Android, Linux or Windows all run, and even if one or other of these environments get borked, the core OS is likely to remain unscathed.

Google, perhaps, is torn between enabling Windows in order to increase the appeal of Chrome OS, or excluding Windows to press home its security advantages and push software vendors towards Android or web applications.
