I am sharing external Mac drives with a Windows 7 guest operating system (Virtual machine) and it seems like Parallels Desktop automatically assigns shared drive letters beginning from the end of the alphabet, in the order that they are connected.
How do I reassign the drive letters I see in Windows 7 for those drives?
Cause
Drive letter assignment is managed by Windows and does not depend on Parallels Desktop.
Resolution
To reassign drive letters for shared Mac drives please follow the steps below:
- Make sure the external drive is properly connected to the Mac and mounted in Finder.
- Start Windows, go to Start ► Computer and make sure external drive is successfully mapped (usually with letter X:, Y: or Z:)
- Click on 'Map network drive' button.
- In the new 'Map network drive' window choose the Drive letter you want from the list
- Then in Folder: field type in
psf
and choose the drive you need from the drop-down list (psfKINGSTON
in the example below) Mac windows 10. - Make sure 'Reconnect at logon' checkbox is checked. Save changes.
- Now in Windows Explorer you will be able to see 2 identical drives with different drive letters assigned.
- Right-click on the drive with the 'wrong' letter (Y: in the example) and choose Disconnect
- Now the shared drive letter will be saved for this device even after Windows is rebooted.

because Parallels names the localhost as '.psf' I have problems using Visual Studio within Parallels ('Invalid URI: Host name could not be passed' error appears). I understood that somehow I have to map a folder to a drive letter in Parallels. Can someone describe me the exact steps of how I could do this?

First, if you haven't already, you need to tell Parallels what folder in OS X you want to share with Windows. To do this go to the 'Virtual Machine' menu and select 'Configure…'. From there go to the 'Shared Folders' section and add a new user-defined share.
Back in Windows, open My Computer and look for button in the toolbar called 'Map Network Drive.' It'll bring up a dialog box which lets you choose the drive letter and path to the shared folder. It's easier to just hit the Browse button and navigate to the share than to type it by hand.
Hit the Finish button and you should be all set. https://prrenew861.weebly.com/virginia-tech-parallels-for-mac.html.
