    My VM crashed and I was forced to restart Parallels. Once it came back up, I was no longer able to start the VM.

    The text I get is:

    "Parallels Desktop cannot set the permissions for one or more objects in the virtual machine folder. Contact the Parallels support team for assistance."

    I saw two files owned by root:

    - VmInfo.pvi
    - statistics.log

    I tried changing the ownership to my own user to no avail. See some mention about a missing .sav file in the parallels.log from when the VM was running.

    Any idea how to recover?
