    I have just downloaded the 3848 update for 4.0 and am running Vista (also up to date) For some reason I am able to uninstall MVC but it keeps installing again each time I reboot the virtual machine. Also the Parallels Tools keep being downloaded and reinstalled. Anyone have any idea what is going on?

    I have checked manual instructions for McAfee uninstallation but get nowhere. I see there are still some McAfee keys in the registry. Can these be erased manually?

    Thanks, Ivan

    Hello Ivan,

    Please download the Windows cleanup utility from the link provided below:

    http://download.microsoft.com/download/e/9/d/e9d80355-7ab4-45b8-80e8-983a48d5e1bd/msicuu2.exe

    Later after installing it, check for the anti virus, if you find it in the list, remove it completely.

    For Parallels Tools reinstallation, please follow these steps:

    1) Go to start->control panel->add/remove programs.
    2) Remove the Parallels Tools.
    3) It will reboot after uninstall.
    4) Again go to Virtual Machine->Install Parallels Tools.
    5) This will install Parallels Tools and reboot.
    6) It should work fine.

    Thank you.
