Working in Windows without Saving Changes

Note: This feature is only available in Parallels Desktop for Mac Pro and Business Editions.

  1. Open Parallels Desktop.

  2. From the Control Center, select the Windows machine that you want to start in Rollback Mode and click Actions > Start in Rollback Mode.

  2. From the Control Center, select Windows and click Actions > Configure > Security.

  3. Choose Ask me what to do from the Rollback Mode menu.
