Suddenly, I can no longer get internet access from Parallels Windows 10 virtual machine. I can when I run my Ventura OSX. But not when I run Parallels.
Does anyone how I can go about fixing this problem?

You know, it absolutely amazes me that when I need the virtual machine the most, that's when the problems start popping up! Amazing!

How are you setting your networking within the VM? If you're using NAT, try switching over to bridge mode to see how it changes.

Also, does it work at times and fail at other?

I believe there is a specific rule that covers that situation but I cannot recall the actual name at this point, but it is definitely an offshoot of "Murphy's law".

Thanks everyone. I found the solution. It's very simple.

  1. I logged into Parallel Plex and from within Windows 10 I went up to the gear icon
