#PARALLELS DESKTOP FOR CHROMEBOOK PDF#

Since it supports dragging and dropping files from the Chrome OS Files app right into a Windows program, working on images feels pretty seamless. My productivity workflow doesn’t only revolve around writing and bookkeeping, though there are times when I have to throw light Photoshop work into the equation. You can share any directory you want with Windows (including Google Drive) by right-clicking it or you can simply drag and drop individual files onto the Parallels window. It’s much easier to go the other way around, though. To work around this, you’ll have to copy and paste individual files across the two systems or move files from OneDrive over to Documents, Pictures, Downloads, Movies, Music, or Desktop - these are the only folders that sync from Windows to Chrome OS. At the moment, it’s not possible to choose custom folders to share from Windows with Chrome OS, meaning there’s no way to get the OneDrive folder from your Windows environment to show up under Chrome OS. Speaking of OneDrive, it’s great to finally have offline copies of my files available without tedious workarounds, but the solution still isn’t perfect.

While I’m getting by with the online version for bookkeeping, using the full-fledged Microsoft Excel helps me take full advantage of all the little scripts and options I’ve built into my spreadsheet, like links to PDF receipts I’ve saved to my OneDrive storage.

The same goes for proper Microsoft Excel support.
