    Hi there,

    I'm considering using Parallels to put my Windows 7 PC on my MacBook Air as a virtual machine. My question is, if I do this, does Parallels do anything to the Windows 7 PC itself or does it just create an imagine on the Mac? i.e. If I create the Virtual machine, can I continue to use the actual Windows 7 PC as if nothing ever happened to it, as well as running the Windows 7 virtual machine on my Mac?

    Many thanks in advance for your help.

    Hi

    Windows on your PC will not be destroyed during migration with Parallels Transporter.
    Simultaneous usage of both copies depends on windows license.
