    Hi all, so I just bought 11 Pro, and I have an iMac with my favorite VMs all running well in PD10. Can I install 11 there and not kill 10? What would you recommend, as I really want to test things out. I thought I would just backup the VMs and try 11 with a copy. I am running Yosemite 10.10.5 and either Win10 or Server 2012r in the VMs. Thx!

    Hi @Jigs Gaton you can install the Parallels Desktop 11 without removing previous version, all of you VM will be saved, but to make sure you may back it up.
    Also in order to revert back to the previous version (Parallels Desktop 10 for ex.) you need to download the Parallels Desktop installation file using this KB.
