parallels desktop windows 10 switching desktops

The intent is to see if it is specific to one account or a system wide problem. If Back-to-My Mac is selected in System Preferences, the Guest account will not work. Try setting up another admin user account to see if the same problem continues. Thanks for the help I really appreciate people spending their time helping others on forums like this one. In short: is there a way disable auto-switching entirely? I'd like to be able to assign windows and navigate manually without being constantly pulled away from the project I'm working on. I have unchecked '.switch to a space with open windows of that application' in System Prefences, but my desktop continues to auto-switch, especially with Finder. Aren't apps supposed to come when we call, not the other way around? If a new iteration of an app can't be opened (ie, Mail), I'd like it to pull Mail to me rather than send me off to it. If I click on an application, I want it to open a new window for that application. In fact, I never want to be switched to a different desktop automatically. When I'm working on project 1 in desktop 1, I never want to be whisked away to desktop 2. Like many users, I suspect, I use different desktops for different projects, each of which requires a variety of applications (finder, word docs, spreadsheets, etc). However, it seems more oriented to organizing desktops by application rather than by project.

I've long appreciated the spaces/mission control feature of OS X.
