Emulator fails using Parallels for Mac
Been getting this strange cube colored square after a few seconds running the emulator.
Seems that files are missing, or fail to load:
'New.exe' (Win32): Loaded 'C:\Windows\System32\windows.storage.dll'. Cannot find or open the PDB file.
'New.exe' (Win32): Loaded 'C:\Windows\System32\powrprof.dll'. Cannot find or open the PDB file.
'New.exe' (Win32): Loaded 'C:\Windows\System32\shlwapi.dll'. Cannot find or open the PDB file.
'New.exe' (Win32): Loaded 'C:\Windows\System32\profapi.dll'. Cannot find or open the PDB file.
'New.exe' (Win32): Loaded 'C:\Windows\System32\iertutil.dll'. Cannot find or open the PDB file.
'New.exe' (Win32): Loaded 'C:\Windows\System32\urlmon.dll'. Cannot find or open the PDB file.
'New.exe' (Win32): Loaded 'C:\Windows\System32\cryptbase.dll'. Cannot find or open the PDB file.
'New.exe' (Win32): Loaded 'C:\Windows\System32\BCP47Langs.dll'. Cannot find or open the PDB file.

@AR123,
Is New.exe an application you have created (ex: from the Visual Studio template)? If so, and you did not change the code, the colored cube is to be expected as the emulator is running the application that has been launched.The "Cannot find or open the PDB file." messages are not an error, they are an indication that the Windows 10 debugging symbols are not installed on your machine.
If you started your application by clicking the run button in Visual Studio,
you should be able to stop it by stopping the debugger.
If you started your application by selecting Debug > Start without debugging, you can stop it using the Device Portal. The emulator's toolbar has a button that will launch a browser and connect to the Device Portal.
You can use the App Manager page to stop your application ("scratch" in my example).
Thanks!

Why bother with running a VM inside a VM? I would suggest booting all the way into Windows and not using parallels.
