You can disable backup for the VM completely - a very bad idea. Parallels Desktop provides an optimization for Mac Time Machine. If you use Apple’s own Time Machine, it will try to back up the entire virtual machine every time, taking up a lot of time and a lot of space on backup media. The only thing that was complicated – backing up the virtual machine. Parallels Desktop is an amazing product, making working with Windows on a Mac very efficient. So I use Parallels to run Windows on my Mac, and always have Windows open in another space. I use a bunch of useful Windows tools not available on a Mac. But even when I use my Mac, I can’t work without Windows. Fro example, Keynote has some interesting animations that are easy to set up. Sometimes I use Mac for working with graphics and animation. ![]() ![]() Most time I work on a PC running Windows 10. I am using multiple computers for business and pleasure.
