    Does anyone know the correct way to uninstall Parallels Desktop 11 for Mac? The instructions in the KB start at Parallels Desktop 12 and say you just need to delete the app. Some info I found--but haven't confirmed--seemed to indicate that older versions required an Uninstall tool that you could download from Parallels...?

    Hi MichaelL41. You can just move Parallels Desktop from 'Applications' folder to 'Trash' to delete it.

    Moving Parallels to the trash disables it but doesn't remove it from the computer. I want it OUT.

    Hello DonH2, Kindly go to Finder and search for .pvm files and if you find any Windows .pvm then right click and move it to trash, Please empty the trash as well.
