I currently am running Parallels 7 on my iMac with snow leopard (10.6.8). I would like to upgrade to El Capitan and therefore Parallels 11. I understand that I would need to purchase a full Parallels 11 and not the upgrade. If I install the new Parallels 11 would I still have access to the virtual machine that I have now (Windows 7 Enterprise) or would that have to be set up again? How should I go about both of these upgrades? In what order do I need to upgrade?
 
After installing Parallels Desktop 11, you do not need to reinstall Windows or create a new virtual machine. You can use your existing virtual machine.
 
Thanks for your reply. Then should I purchase and install Parallels Desktop 11 First? Then upgrade to El Capitan? Will Parallels Desktop 11 work with my snow Leopard until I can upgrade to Parallels Desktop 11? Thanks.

Hi Richard, we suggest you to upgrade the Mac OS X to El Capitan first and then purchase and install Parallels Desktop 11 for Mac.
