    Hi everybody,

    I am trying to install Visual Studio 2012 Express on my Windows 7 VM.
    Every time I try to launch the installation program, a quick popup "Visual Studio 2012" shows up, and disappears immediately... I tried which both the online and .iso versions, but I still get the same issue.:(

    Any ideas or suggestions are welcome! :)
    Thanks!!!

    Hi,
    Please follow the steps as given below and check how it works :
    1. Ensure that you are running the latest build of Parallels Desktop ( http://kb.parallels.com/111603 )
    2. Uninstall Parallels Tools from the Control Panel ( if any ) and re-install it again as suggested at http://kb.parallels.com/4841
    3. Restart the Virtual Machine and try to install the application.
    If the issue still persists,
    * Enable the option : Isolate Windows from Mac (http://kb.parallels.com/112942) and restart the Virtual Machine.
    * Try installing the application and it should work for you.
    * After installing the application, make sure to disable the option : Isolate Windows from Mac.

    Thanks for your quick answer! I did all what you told me but it still doesn't work...
    I found out that it works well with Visual C# 2010, it's not compatible with the latest versions but it's better than nothing! :)
