    hi, I'm running Parallels 3.0 for Mac (Build 4560) and I installed it using the administrator account on my mac but setup a separate "tester" account to have an isolated environment for testing stuff in VM's. Parallels runs fine from this account and I can _create_ snapshots but when click the gear icon in the sidebar to load the snapshot manager while using the tester account, it locks up Parallels and doesn't launch the snapshot manager.

    Snapshot manager runs fine when I'm logged in as the administrator. Has anyone else encountered this? Solution?

    found a fix

    fyi: i gave administrator priviledges to the "tester" account and it works now. I don't know if this is expected behavior or a bug but this ended up giving me access to the snapshot manager from within the tester account.
