    Hi all,
    total noob here, I installed Parallels on my new Macbook, registered it with the License key and installed Windows XP.
    HOWEVER turns out I installed it to our work root account and not my personal account on the Laptop. So now when i run Parallels on my personal account it wants me to install windows XP again along with activating it again.
    Considering i have just paid for it, i don't intend to pay for it again.

    Is there a way to copy over parallels from the admin account to my personal account, or do i have to uninstall/unregister it on the admin account to then install it again on my personal account?
    Considering this is my first day at job looking for a solution that does not involve me walking back to the boss with my head hung in shame!

    Does windows ask for reactivation?

    Did you delete other vm and parallels?
