    The latest version of Parallels on the Mac seems to corrupt the Windows 10 virtual machine. If I suspend operation, when I bring the machine back up, the machine sits there and is completely unresponsive to mouse clicks or anything else. When I restore from time Machine it seems to work again, but when I allow Windows updates to apply and restart, it comes up to the default Windows display settings and again is unresponsive. Something happened 3/10/2016 with the update cycle because before that everything worked fine.

    My Windows 10 installation is an upgrade from Windows 7 Ultimate, so it may include some functions not in Windows Home edition.

    But right now the Parallels product with Windows is non-functioning on the Mac with OS X 10.11.3. I can temporarily restore function by restoring a Time Machine backup of the Virtual Machine folder from 3/10/2016 but once Windows updates, the restore is dead too, and I have no way of turning off the windows updates.

    Any suggestions? Is there any way to force a re-installation of Parallels, in case the installation on the machine is bad?
