    Since upgrading to Parallels 6, I created a new VM with Windows 7 64-bit. Everything runs great, however, I noticed that Windows applications no longer show up in the Mac OS X finder "open with..." application list which is accessed by right-clicking on a file on the Mac.

    The Windows VM applications are set for sharing and my Mac desktop and documents folders are set up for sharing too. The Windows VM Application folder also is installed on my Mac Dock.

    For now if I want to open a file with a Windows application, I have to drag it to the Windows VM desktop or open the file from within the Windows application.

    Any suggestions?

    Thanks in advance for any help.
