Hi!
If I purchase an OEM license and accidentilally ruin the VM. Will I be able to create a new VM with similar signature to reinstall the OEM licence, or will the license be lost?

Hello,

For Windows licensing issues, we recommend that you contact Microsoft technical support.
 
Actually not much of a Windows licensing issue, but rather a technical question about Parallels' VMs internal workings. I shall try to reformulate myself :)
To my understanding Windows OEM binds itself to a digital fingerprint of the first computer it is activated on, and cannot be transfered thereafter to any other computer as it will have a different fingerprint. So my question is, can I recreate a VM with the same fingerprint as the previous one? So that in case the VM where the initial OEM install is made gets corrupted I do not loose the abillity to install it anew in a fresh VM. Or will each VM have its own unique fingerprint. If so, is there a way to back it up and restore it?
