Use Keyboard Shortcuts

Both macOS and Windows provide extensive keyboard shortcuts. For example, in macOS you can hold down the Command key and press Q (Command-Q) to quit the current application.

To enter a keyboard shortcut, simply press a key combination on your keyboard.

You can also enter keyboard shortcuts by doing one of the following:

• Click the Parallels icon in the menu bar, then choose Devices > Keyboard and choose a key combination.
• Choose Devices > Keyboard and choose a key combination.

These methods are most useful for using keyboard shortcuts that include keys not included on a Mac keyboard, such as Alt + PrintScreen.

Note: To use the F1-F12 keys on a MacBook, press and hold the Fn key and then press an F key.
