Windows programs are open. That way, more resources such as RAM and CPU can be used for
Mac OS X applications.

1 Do one of the following:
Option-click (Alt-click) the Parallels icon
in the menu bar and choose Configure.
If the Parallels Desktop menu bar is visible at the top of the screen, choose Virtual Machine
> Configure.
2 Click Options and select Applications.
3 Be sure Share Windows applications with Mac is selected, and then select Pause Windows
