    I just purchased the V6 upgrade. The installer is telling me that it will upgrade my existing VMs, then remove V5. That's fine, but when it does that will it upgrade the VMs for other users on this machine as well? I've got three user accounts on this machine, all with their own set of VMs for V5. I really don't want to install, have my VMs upgraded, then leave the others high and dry.

    I think they are also updated. Console.app shows the installer looping through all the users. Anyway, you can update them manually if they don't get updated by the installer. I don't think the update process does much anyway to the VM. You could test this by saving an old VM (duplicate it and zip it so the installer can't see it), then update the zipped VM after the installer is done.
