As I was configuring my VM boot options, I inadvertently checked BOTH flags "Start VM automatically when it is opened" AND "Exit application on VM shutdown"
My problem is this: Now I can't get back to the VM Configuration Editor to turn off those flags.
When I load Parallels, it auto-launches my VM (as I told it to). But, with my VM running, I can't use the VM Configuration Editor. So, I have to stop my VM to use the editor...but when I stop the VM, it auto-closes the Parallels application (again, as I told it to) before I can do anything.
Although the user manual shows a workaround, I can't seem to get Parallels to open into a VM Catalog to allow me to override the auto-launch by holding down the CMD key. It just opens up my WinXP every time I launch the application.
Any suggestions? Thanks!
