OpenGL 4.5 Issue on Ansys Workbench with Parallels

  I am running Ansys Workbench on a MacBook Pro with an M3 pro chip using Parallels Desktop with Windows 11. When I try to generate a mesh, on Mechanical, Ansys reports that OpenGL 4.5 is required.
  On a Parallels forum, I found that the software currently supports only OpenGL 4.1. This seems to be the cause of the issue, but I wonder if anyone has found a solution or a workaround to make mesh generation work properly.
  Does anyone have experience with this or suggestions on how to fix it?

  Hi,
  Parallels only supports up to 4.1, also we do not support Parallels Desktop on MacBook
