Why are Parallels Services set to run on Automatic and running when I'm running it natively on BootCamp (prl_cc, prl_tools, prl_tools_service processes in the task manager)? I think they weren't supposed to be running under BootCamp...

Totally unrelated to this issue, is there anyway to make Parallels quit the application automaticly when I shutdown a virtual machine (like it did on PDM 3 when I shutted down a VM started from a shortcut/alias)?

Yes, there is a way. In Parallels Desktop please go to Configure->Options->Startup and Shutdown and put a tick near "Close window on shutdown".
 
That closes the VM window but doesn't quit Parallels Desktop.app.
 
Was Parallels Desktop.app suppose to quit if I have the 'close window on shutdown'? If not, I wish there was a way to make it quit when I shutteddown the VM.

Can I get an answer on the Parallels services?
 
Hi Specimen
Parallels Desktop application is not supposed to quit even when you select this option.
Window closes only Virtual machine application, associated with particular virtual machine
 
Ok, I'll add that to the Features Requests

What about my other question about the Parallels Services under Boot Camp!!?
