    Hi gang,

    Am trying to set it so when I close Parallels, it shuts-down Windows, instead of using Stop or Suspend.

    However, the option to Shutdown is not available in the Configure->Startup and Shutdown->On Window Close option... only Stop or Suspend.

    Am I missing something?

    Thanks!

    Using Parallels 4.0 & Bootcamp partition under OS X 10.5.6.

    Casemon,

    You can use the "Close window on shutdown" option in Configure -> Startup and Shutdown. This would be the only way to shut down the virtual machine and close the window with one action. To trigger it, you should shut down the guest Windows OS via the Start menu.

    As far as I can understand you want Windows to be shutdown correctly,
    In this case please use Start - Shutdown
    With quit there is no option
