This reduces the backup time and the amount of data that the Time Machine backs up. We recommend having this option enabled along with SmartGuard if you use Time Machine. To make detailed customization of SmartGuard settings > click on Details. To enable SmartGuard open Windows virtual machine's configuration > go to Backup tab > check the SmartGuard option. You can set a snapshot to be taken within a 48 hour period starting from an hourly creation and keep up to 100 snapshots at the same time. Parallels Desktop SmartGuard feature automates snapshots' creation. However, if you are not an advanced user a manual backup once in a while is recommended instead of SmartGuard. When your machine is backed up, only the most recent changes are saved (the latest snapshot), so the backup process takes less time and uses less space on your Time Machine storage device. Parallels Desktop for Mac includes improved integration with Time Machine. If Time Machine is set up on your computer Parallels Desktop detects it and adds your virtual machine to backup schedule. Using Time Machine to back up your Windows virtual machine is one of the possible ways to keep your computer safe.
