Arun, I am still not sure I am at first base yet.
You said earlier:-
"Hi Mike, it is not a mistake to do update the Windows Boot camp from Parallels Desktop . You can try importing the boot camp , so that you can take a snapshot of the imported pvm file before the Windows update and revert back to it if you are not happy with the update."
I have looked for an option to create a new VM by importing the Bootcamp partition, but can only see an option to use the Bootcamp Partition, which is not the same and would not allow snapshots as per the link on snapshots.
How do I import a standalone VM from Bootcamp?
Thanks.
PS Just to be clear about my activation question...after importing a standalone VM from Bootcamp, there could be three Windows 10 installs on the same machine:
1. Actual Bootcamp
2. Parallels using Bootcamp
3. Parallels import of Bootcamp
I am familiar with the issues about activating 1 and 2, so was asking about 3.
