    How can I setup parallels to allow me to use the windows + keys like windows + c to pull up the charms in Windows 8?

    There are several others but was curious how I could make that work.

    Hi,
    Just figured this out. You can use Command-Option-C and Command-Option-Q to bring up those menus. Or if you don't like that, if you go into parallels preferences and click on Shortcuts > Virtual Machines, you can uncheck Command C / Ctrl+C and Command Q / Alt+F4, to let you use the charms and search menu. You can also see how all the other windows shortcuts are mapped in there.
