Working with Remote Applications
When a remote application is launched on your PC, you can work with it just like with a local application, which means that you can perform any of the following actions:
- Open local files in the application.
- Create new files and save them locally.
- Maximize and minimize the application (if it has the controls for it in general).
- Move the application around Windows desktop.
- Print documents or graphics to a local printer.
- Use a scanner connected to your PC.
- Beginning with Parallels RAS v16.2, you can drag and drop files to remote applications. For example, you can drag and drop a local file to a remote application to open it, or you can drag and drop a file to Windows Explorer running remotely to copy it. Some limitations apply, so it may not work for all types of files and applications. For example, you cannot drag and drop OLE objects, and some others.
In other words, a remote application gives you full control and is no different from an application running locally on your PC.
