    Right now I've actually reversed the mapping of the Command and Option/Enter keys in Mac OS X. This makes my Mac experience a bit more awkward compared to the much more awkward experience inside of Windows of the Command key NOT being mapped to ALT.

    Any chance this could be a configurable option?

    BTW, great work on the fixes in B3.

    second that request

    as someone who jumps between macos and windows hundreds of times a day it would be a wonderful thiings if parallels could map the control key to the command key (so command-c was copy on both pc and mac, for example)

    it would be a great option to add if possible.

    Two ways to do that yourself, if you're too impatient to wait for Parallels to add it to the Parallels Tools:
    1. Microsoft's remapkey.exe
    2. The more powerful but slightly-less-friendly AutoHotKey.

    I highly recommend the latter, as it can do lots of wonderful things, in both Parallels and Boot Camp.
