    Hi,

    I have been running Windows 10 on PD 11 for some time without any issues but today I was going to try to import a Hyper-V VM from an external drive when I received an error message about a missing component.
    After some research I found out that this setup (nested virtualization) is available in Pro only and is enabled on CPU & Memory tab.
    I purchased an upgrade to PD 11 Pro and according to my license information it's now a Pro version, but I cannot find the advanced settings in the CPU tab.
    I've reinstall PD 11, rebooted the MacBook, made sure that the Win 10 VM is set to "Productivity", reinstalled Parallels Tools and created a brand new VM the CPU tab but the option to enable Nested virtualization is nowhere to be found.

    Any suggestions what I might be doing wrong?

    Thanks

    Edit - all of a sudden it works..! I went to make sure it did show Pro on licenses when a textbox appeared telling me that the Pro version was registered. So, all good for now :)

    Hi, Parallels Desktop 11 for Mac Pro Edition has included in create development environments in a virtual machine, and easily backup, share or restore it. Pro Edition debuts with support and integration for popular development tools, including Chef, Jenkins, and Vagrant.
    Go to Action->configuration->General->Configure for->Change into Productivity and then go to Hardware->CPU & Memory ->click advanced settings and enable PMU virtualization
