Parallels Desktop 18 Standard, 1 Mac, Lifetime License

Parallels Desktop 18 Standard: Windows on your Mac, no reboot

Need a program that only exists for Windows, such as accounting, banking, technical software or a game, but work on a Mac? Parallels Desktop runs Windows inside macOS, alongside your Mac apps, without rebooting. The license is a lifetime license, for one Mac. For newer Macs and the latest macOS versions, we recommend the most recent version.

The Standard edition

Standard covers everyday use: office apps, accounting and business software for Windows, browsers and light games. For software development and very heavy workloads, see the Pro edition.

What you can do

• Windows 11 on Apple Silicon Macs (M1 and later) and on Intel Macs.
• Coherence mode: Windows apps appear like Mac apps, with no Windows desktop.
• Shared files and clipboard between Mac and Windows, with drag and drop.
• Setup in minutes with an automatic assistant.
• Linux and macOS virtual machines for testing.

Important

The Parallels license does not include a Windows license. You will need a separate key, such as Windows 11 Pro.

Delivery and activation

After payment you receive the code by email. Download Parallels Desktop from the official website, sign in with a Parallels account and enter the code.
