Share this story • • • Like clockwork, Parallels releases a new version of its desktop virtualization software for Mac computers every year. The new versions often coincide with major new Windows and Mac operating systems, requiring major software changes to bring new Windows features to Apple computers or to make sure everything keeps working properly. Parallels Desktop 12 for Mac is thus being announced today, but there isn't much to be excited about.

Turn Off Parallels Mac

While Parallels can run just about any operating system in a virtual machine, its primary purpose is letting Mac users run Windows applications. For that use case, last year's Parallels Desktop 11 release is still good enough. There was an obvious reason to upgrade to Parallels 11 last year for people who wanted to run Windows 10 on a Mac. That's because Parallels 11 was the only version to support Windows 10 in Coherence Mode, which lets Windows applications run on a Mac in their own windows and integrate with the Mac's Notification Center. Without Coherence Mode, Windows applications are all contained in a single window that displays Microsoft's whole operating system. Today, the year-old Parallels Desktop 11 still fully supports Windows 10, even after the recently pushed out by Microsoft. I've been running the Anniversary Update in Parallels 11, and it hasn't broken Coherence Mode.

By contrast, the upgrade from Windows 8.1 to in Parallels 10 last year, and Parallels decided not to update the then-year-old version of its software to fix it. So why pay for an upgrade to Parallels 12?

After reviewing the announcement materials and interviewing Parallels executives about the new release, I get the feeling that even they're struggling to offer a good reason. Besides the annual speed improvements for tasks like creating snapshots and suspending virtual machines, the first features mentioned in Parallels' announcement today won't make your virtual machines run any better.

The press release and presentation for reporters gave top billing to a new 'Parallels Toolbox for Mac' application that makes it easier to perform some basic tasks that aren't related to virtualization. The toolbox provides a drop-down menu from the Mac's menu bar that lets you take screenshots, record audio, download videos from YouTube and Facebook, and prevent your Mac from sleeping, among other things. Parallels Toolbox is a totally separate product that is being sold separately for $10 a year, but it will also come with Parallels Desktop 12.

Parallels What it costs and when it's available Before we get into other features, here's a look at pricing and availability. A single-computer Parallels Desktop 12 license will cost $79.99, while upgrades from versions 10 or 11 cost $49.99. There's also subscription pricing available for the Pro Edition. The subscription is $99.99 a year for new customers, but only $49.99 a year for customers with a Parallels 10 or 11 perpetual license. If you have a subscription, you automatically get access to new versions, in which case you might as well check out Parallels 12. The Pro Edition subscription also comes with, a remote desktop service that normally costs $20 a year.

If you care about Parallels Toolbox, it's best to get it either as part of a Parallels Desktop subscription or with the $10-per-year standalone subscription. The version of Toolbox that comes with perpetual Parallels Desktop licenses will not get any updates, while the subscription version will get new features from time to time, the company told us.

Parallels For Mac Activation Key

Parallels 12 will be available today for subscribers and upgraders at and is scheduled to be available to anyone beginning August 23. Customers who go several years between Parallels upgrades should note that Parallels Desktop 9, the version that came out in August 2013, will stop working when Macs are upgraded to. Parallels notified customers of the change in a recent e-mail, adding that they can purchase an upgrade to Parallels Desktop 11 and then get an upgrade to version 12 at no additional charge. Sierra has 'increased security requirements' that 'prohibit' installation of Parallels Desktop 9 and earlier versions, a Parallels spokesperson told us. Parallels 10 and 11 will work normally and be able to run virtual machines on Sierra. Version 12 improvements Parallels Desktop 12 will come with a one-year subscription to the backup service (normally $30).

Mac users can already back up virtual machines with Parallels' built-in backup feature or Apple's Time Machine. But the Acronis subscription provides 500GB of online storage and an incremental backup system that uses less disk space than Parallels or Time Machine, Parallels told us. (Parallels 11 offered only a 30-day Acronis trial.) Gaming performance will be improved, with support specifically for Blizzard's game, Parallels said. Parallels will also offer the ability to schedule Windows updates to avoid disruptions at busy times, though a similar feature already exists within Windows itself. In the professional edition for developers, Parallels is making it easier to apply network profiles that limit bandwidth and add packet loss or delays, useful for simulating how applications run on poor connections. It's already possible to do this in version 11, but you have to set the bandwidth and packet loss levels yourself instead of choosing from profiles such as '100% loss,' '3G,' 'DSL,' or 'Very Bad Network.'
