These remained even though I had uninstalled Parallels. I found not one, but two, folders full of Parallels "apps," things that I believe acted like shortcuts to Windows programs that would open the Windows program in the Parallels VM. I spent some time looking through my system internal storage (can't call these things hard drives anymore). With a normal Fusion install, shouldn't they all get associated with Fusion? I think I need to get rid of that somehow. Somehow, deep in my system, all these Windows apps and files are associated with Parallels. When I click a mailto in an OS X browser window, I get "Parallels Desktop was not found." The Microsoft Outlook.app icon visible in the Default Applications dialog contains the tiny Parallels icon. For example, I have VMware Fusion > Preferences > Default Applications > Open Mail (mailto) with: > Microsoft Outlook.app. I do see some other Windows apps (Paint and Photos) that are associated with Fusion, but these are apps I never used when I had Parallels installed.
(I don't have any of this issue in Single Window or Full Screen modes there, Windows just works like Windows.) If I expand the Open With list I see no additional Windows Photo Viewer app that's associated with Fusion. Indeed, when I try to open the JPG, I get "Parallels Desktop was not found." The tiny Parallels icon is superimposed on most windows files and apps, which means I can't open any of them in Unity mode. But if I look closely at the Windows Photo Viewer app icon, it's got a tiny Parallels icon superimposed to show that it will open in Parallels. So, Get Info on a JPG file shows Windows Photo Viewer is listed as the default app already. But because I did that, JPG files are now associated, apparently, with the Windows Photo Viewer app in Parallels. This is what I easily (I don't remember how it was trivial) set up to happen in Parallels. I'd like all JPG files to open in Fusion in Windows with the Windows Photo Viewer app. This process will delete all the virtual machines and will save a significant amount of storage in your Macbook.Thanks Mike. pvm file and click on Delete Immediately.
pvm files are remaining in your system, let’s go ahead and open Finder to find these items. Hit command + space together to bring up Spotlight Search. Therefore follow the steps below if you would like to search for the files with the.
Parallels virtual machines are created with the .pvm extension. Unless you delete the virtual machines manually they will keep taking up a significant part of your storage.
Unfortunately removing the Parallels Desktop application does not remove the virtual machines that you had installed on it. Now the application is completely removed from the system. Step 2: Remove Parallels Desktop virtual machines
