MacTelChat - View Single Post - Parallels Workstation Beta5 now available

javester · 04:05 PM

The Parallels site is suffering a major slowdown, apparently, coz of the Beta5 announcement. Even the support forum has been taken down for maintenance. We will mirror info here in the meantime.

Some more Beta5 info:

Coupled with Virtue Desktop Manager, Beta5 now allows users to transparently switch between OS X and Parallels.
Shared Folders only work with Windows XP.
It is not possible to create subfolders in Shared Folder from inside guest OS.
It is not possible to clear “read-only” attribute for the file in a Shared Folder from inside guest OS.
