When you open an existing virtual machine or create a new one its property page is displayed. The upper part of the page, Configuration, displays the virtual machine name, name of the configuration file with the path, and general VM settings: guest operating system type and version (regardless whether or not it is installed), acceleration level, last modification date, etc. These settings may be changed; and if you click on any of them, the Configuration Editor will be opened on the appropriate page.
Note. The name of the virtual machine is not linked to the Configuration Editor, however it can be changed on the General Options tab.
The Resources list shows all devices connected to the virtual machine and their current options. To edit any device simply click device name. The Configuration Editor will open the tab corresponding to that device.
The command button panel in the bottom of the property page contains buttons for:
Parallels Workstation allows you to pick for the property page the text size that fits you the best. See Text Size for details.
When Running Guest OS
The property page remains available when a guest OS is running. You may open it to check the VM configuration. However, editing of the configuration is prohibited and the command button panel is disabled.
