Hello, i can't activate the coherence mode in current stable localized version. I upgraded from 1780 in which the VM hdd was set up. I reinstalled parallel tools several times, but it seems there is no coherence support. I have the tab "Kohärenz" in parallel tools, but the check box is grayed so i can't turn it on. Parallel Tools Version is build 3186 (27.2.07). Mounting the parallel tools there are only the directories: ClipBrd |-OS2 Drivers |-Mouse |-Network |-SOUND |-Video So no coherence driver? thx in advance for any hints Amnion
Open your Windows control panel and select the software install/uninstall tool, select Parallels tools, and choose the support information link. The version number should be 2.5.3186.
i actually downloaded the english version and installed only the parallel tools from it in my vm. It does the job. So the german localized version is buggy !!!
Confirm problem in German version Hi, I can confirm the problem in the German version of build 3186. The file cohrence.exe is missing in the Parallels Tools folder. I hope there will be a fix for this.
if u cant get coherence to activate, you can try.. Launch Parallels, and start Windows. Click Start menu, select Run... Enter the following in the Run dialog box (this will stop the Coherence service and remove it from the service list...it doesn't actually delete the program, so fear not): Code: sc delete cohrence Reboot Windows Click the Start menu, select Run... Enter the following in the Run dialog box (with quotes): Code: "c:\program files\parallels\parallels tools\cohrence.exe" install Seems Parallels has a typo in their executable name (note the misspelled cohrence.exe file)
@darkone: Thank you for your help, but this does not work since the executable cohrence.exe is missing. (At least in the German build)
