I am using Parallels with a Windows 10 image and VS Community 2013. I solved the problem with the solution proposed by @tempy above: choosing remote host in the launch configuration and writing localhost in the following screen, when it asks for the machine name.

• Select the Debug settings
• Under Start options
  • Set Target Device to "Remote Machine"
  • Set Remote machine to "localhost"
