  1. activating windows 10 in parallels


    I installed parallels, and bought windows 10, and since I installed windows first time by boot camp on mac and I already now formatted my mac and installed parallels, I am facing a problem to activate the windows.

    support never do calls to Kuwait, so how can I contact windows to activate my license too?

    :)

    Unable to activate Windows 10 in parallels

    I transferred a valid and activated copy of windows 10 (free upgrade from Windows 7) to Parallels on my Mac. The copy in Parallels though says it is not activated. How do I activate this VM?

    The original windows computer is now switched off and not used, but is a windows 7 virtual machine in Parallels on this Mac.

    Windows 10 Activation in Parallels

    I have a genuine Windows key and managed to activate Windows 10 under VMWare Fusion for Mac OS.

    However, I prefer Parallels instead of Fusion and re-installed Windows 10 under Parallels.

    For whatever reason, I cannot activate Windows under Parallels but I can under Fusion.

    Under devices in my account, I have removed all my devices and started fdrom scratch.

    Every time, I install Windows in Parallels it fails, and in Fusion it works.

    The error when using the command prompt says that Microsoft has blocked my key but then it should not work under Fusion either right?

    Does anyone have a solution as the makers of Parallels blame it in Microsoft and Microsoft blame it on Parallels activating windows 10 in parallels :)
