Parallels Desktop 12 focuses on removing some of the pain points of running a virtual machine-backing up, for example. These tools come free with any edition of Parallels Desktop, or you can subscribe to Toolbox on its own for $10/year. Parallels Toolbox lives in your menu bar. The company says that it plans to add more tools to the toolbox every few months. These tools, which are easily accessed from the menu bar, are available in all editions of Parallels Desktop 12, but if you don’t need the virtualization, you can get Parallels Toolbox on its own for $10 per year, with a 14-day free trial available starting August 23. Plus, the company’s brand-new Parallels Toolbox app is a set of 20-plus tools and utilities for performing tasks like password-protecting files, recording a screencast, and downloading online videos. To keep you on the cutting edge of virtualization, Parallels on Thursday announced Parallels Desktop 12 for Mac, with support for the forthcoming macOS Sierra. As much as we don’t want to admit it, sometimes we need to use software that (gulp) isn’t available for the Mac.
