Parallel Desktop on Mac

Hi there,


I installed a parallel desktop on my Mac last year. I uninstall it recently but for some reason, my task manager is attached to the parallel desktop and since I uninstalled it, the Task Manager doesn't open. Any thought how I can fix this?



Thanks

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 13.5

Task Manager is a Windows application, not a Mac application. (Mac's equivalent is Activity Monitor, as Wheelie mentioned).


Although I've not used Parallels, my guess is that when you uninstalled it, Task Manager wasn't uninstalled. You should be able to move it to the Trash.


Hope this helps.
