Hi, unsure how it works with the 3 different files once downloaded ? Which should I use ?
One is probably for ARM = M1 chips and so on and other intel based Macs….
It says file is not found/was deleted by the owner when I open both download links
Thanks. It worked. The instruction need to change to just crach.sh on terminal and select option 1.
Thanks to your comment, I figured it out.
correctly got to the 5th step where i have to run the command and it just says :
sudo: ./PD_Crack_20.3.0.sh: command not found
after updating the instructions to simply: crash.sh it worked. Than got the warning “that is not a genuine…”
Than it dont let me use windows without Singing in to Parallels account. Should I make an account?
