Crossover & Parallels

I have Crossover on my Macbook (big Sur) for a while . Now I installed Parallels.

At the end of the installation of Windows10, I get a popup:

"Network initialization failed. Your virtual machine will continue working normally but will have no network connection."

What does it mean, is Crossover perhaps interfering, or is there another explanation.

How to resolve this problem.

Cannot Connect to macOS Ventura on LAN I have the following computers running on the same LAN: Mac Studio M1 Ultra, macOS 13.0.1 (MS) MacBook Air M2, macOS 13.0.1 (MBA) MacBook Pro Retina Late 2013, macOS 11.7.1 (MBP) Dell XPS 13 Plus, Windows 11 Pro (DELL) I can see all of them on the network and I can connect between MBP and DELL in either direction. I can also connect from MS or MBA to MBP or DELL. However, I can neither connect to MS or MBA from MBP or DELL, nor connect between MS and MBA. When I click on MS or MBA from another computer to connect I get an error message, such as "the server may not exist or is unavailable", or "the network path does not exist". The settings on MS and MBA are similar to those on MBP. Please refer to the attached screenshots. In summary, I cannot get access to my Mac Silicon Ventura computers via LAN from any other computer on the same network. For MS and MBA: I followed the instructions in the Apple articles: If you can’t connect Mac and Windows computers and If your Mac can’t connect to another computer ad litteram, to no avail. The Public Folder is shared, 'Share files and folders using SMB' is set to On The Firewall Options 'Automatically allow built-in software to receive incoming connections' is set to On and 'File Sharing (SMB)' is set to Allow incoming connections. What am I missing here? Any suggestions on what I should do to be able to connect to MS and MBA via LAN will be appreciated. Thanks!

Ethernet connectivity problem with MacBook Pro M1 2020 I have a MacBook Pro M1 2020, just purchased a USB-C ethernet adapter, yet cannot connect to my wired network. Has anyone encountered this problem? When I open network settings, ethernet is not even an option on the left, where all other connections are.
