ctrl+s = cmd+s - keyboard shortcut for save?

New user that just installed 1.1.2 here, after switching from Parallels.

It appears as though when I hit cmdc or cmdv to copy and paste on my mac keyboard while in windows, these keyboard shortcuts are functioning properly as ctrlc or ctrlv. However, cmds is NOT working to save. I can hit ctrls while in the guest OS. Is this a flaw/bug, or functioning as designed? Can I somehow "fix" this so that cmd+s works? This problem is putting a fairly large bump in my workflow - especially since it worked fine in Parallels.

For clarity, cmd = the command or apple key on my mac keyboard, while ctrl means the ctrl key on my mac keyboard.

Thanks,

Justine

Yes, I have those checkboxes enabled. As I stated before, the mac keyboards shortcuts are working for copy, paste and cut. Save is the only one that isn't working when I use "command" on my Mac keyboard.

Cmd-s, not working for me either. I think it was an issue from a while ago but has not been resolved. (Correct me if I'm wrong.)
