    I installed Windows 10 today, replacing Windows 7. The installation went OK but I notice that the Window for the Virtual System still shows a title of Windows 7 and the icons for Windows are still the old orange/green/yellow/blue flag rather than a Windows 10 icon. How do I update the title and icons? Otherwise, Windows 10 seems to be fully operational.

    Thanks for any help.

    Shutdown the VM, then in the Virtual Machines List window, click the gear icon. In the settings screen, on the General tab, you can type in "Windows 10", and right above that is a drop down list where you can also select the new version of Windows that is in the VM.
