related: #10737

MacOSX: 10.15.3, dotnet installed via brew cask.

Any dotnet cli command in MacOSX fails after starting Windows inside Parallels Desktop. After stopping Parallels, dotnet commands run normally.

bash-3.2$ dotnet --info

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2019\Community>certutil -error 0x8007001F

Error message text: A device attached to the system is not functioning.
CertUtil: -error command completed successfully.

reveals that it is ERROR_GEN_FAILURE, and it might be related to CoreCLR not being about to allocate enough memory, when Parallels is running on the system. Here is a similar discussion about FreeBSD getting the same error when VirtualBox is running on the host: https://github.com/dotnet/runtime/issues/6353#issuecomment-234250926.
