Update:
Just attempted to install Windows 10 on my MacPro (Catalina 10.15.2) and, during the reboot during the final part of the Windows 10 setup process, Windows did not recognize my Apple bluetooth mouse and the keyboard short cuts in the setup GUI also did not work.
So, I also deleted Windows 10 via Bootcamp on my "big Mac"......
LOL, two days ago I spent a long time moving 500 GB of data from this "big 12-core Mac Pro" to a remote Mac Mini, so to repartition my 1TB SSD drive to give Bootcamp it's on 128 GB partition; and then found out Windows 10 on macOS cannot even recognize a simple BT mouse.
And this is the year 2020? Windows 10 cannot "out of the box" recognize a BT mouse?
Amazing really.
I think I will try Parallels again, with my new disk configuration. Maybe I'll get lucky and it will be a bit faster.
