FAQ

What is Parallels Toolbox?
This program is a versatile suite of easy-to-use, lightweight applications—referred to as tools—designed to help you stay productive, focused, and secure. It offers quick access to many common functions that are often hidden, require complex keyboard shortcuts, or are otherwise unavailable.

Is Parallels Toolbox for Mac suitable for non-technical users?
Yes, the software is designed with simplicity in mind, making it accessible to users of all technical levels.

Is Parallels Toolbox worth it?
It offers a comprehensive collection of tools—56 for Mac—covering a wide range of functionalities that are difficult to find in a single package elsewhere. Many alternative solutions provide these features individually and at a higher cost when combined.

With Parallels Toolbox, you get all these tools in one convenient application, eliminating the need to search for, install, and pay for multiple separate applications. Everything is easily accessible through a single launcher in the Menu bar.

Is Parallels Toolbox safe?
Yes, this software is completely safe to use. Each tool within the suite interacts with different parts of your computer system, but you have full control over which tools to use. If a specific tool requires access to certain system functions, it will request permission when you launch it.

The required access is granted to that tool alone. If another tool requires similar access, it will ask for permission upon launch. The tools do not delete, damage, store, or transmit any information unless you explicitly instruct them to do so, such as by launching a tool or clicking the delete button within the tool.

Does Parallels Toolbox for Mac require an internet connection to function?
Most tools work offline, but some features, such as Download Video, require an internet connection.

Is Parallels Toolbox updated regularly?

Can I customize the toolbox layout?
Absolutely. Users can organize tools into categories, rearrange them on the dashboard, or hide tools they don’t use frequently.

Is Parallels Toolbox better than CleanMyMac?

Parallels Toolbox does have powerful tools to clean system junk, find duplicates, optimize memory and battery usage, uninstall applications and their files.

But Parallels Toolbox is much more than just a Mac cleaning solution. It improves not only system performance, but helps you increase productivity, simplifies your daily actions, and improves the processes around downloading and working with media.
