Hi @Mukey# , you will have an option "Enter Windows activation key for faster installation" , please un check it and continue with the installation and let us know if that works.
I have this very same problem. Can you please tell me where do i have that option?? (printscreen please) Windows 10 just starts to install and before i get the error message i do not have that option in the screen.
i have the same problem also with parallels 13. check activation and even unchecked. exhausted all possible fixes. also if possible could you give me steps in order to fix this issue. i mean probably more steps than just one or two
Hi AnthonyA5, you can start the VM creation as mentioned here but when you are on the screen to select the ISO and continue to select "Locate Manually" then select "Continue without a source" then proceed to select Operating System. Choose the profile for your virtual machine. Give a name for the VM and create. You will get a no boot screen. Use Actions (on Mac menu bar) > Stop. Now you can see the empty VM on Parallels Desktop Control Center. Now you can mount the Windows 10 ISO and start the VM which will start Windows installation manually. Don't enter Windows key during installation select "I don't have a key". You can complete the activation after the installation is complete.
Hello guys.... I tried to follow this guide BUT the installations stops every time in a situation like the one showed in the picture attached. Any tip?
Share us the complete screenshot. You will get this screen only after Windows installation is complete.
