Hi Jan,

Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

I understand the inconvenience caused, I will be glad to assist you with this.

Just to clarify, you receive the error message while trying to install Windows 10, is that right?

I would suggest you to try the steps given in Parallel's Support page and check if it helps.

If that doesn't help, please contact Parallel Support

Hope this helps.

Upgrading to Windows 10 in Parallels

I know that I need to do a clean install. That's why I asked about how to BOOT up Parallels from the USB. If I wait until Parallels is open to select Parallels as the location for the USB to operate within, then it's too late already. This only works for
simple upgrades--which this is not. I need to be able to open Parallels where it defaults to the USB so that I CAN do the clean install. Plugging the USB in before opening Parallels defaults it to the Mac partition of the computer. Can you please tell me the
steps to take to get Parallels booting up from the USB to do that install? Thank you!

 

Parallels

Hi, I've got 8.1 in Bootcamp and used that in Parallels as well, I didn't really want to risk upgrading it to 10, so I just downloaded and installed through parallels. So now I've got 8.1 in Bootcamp and 8.1, TP and Crome in Parallels, the poor little Mac is struggling a bit, but it's all working.
I might give Hyper V a shot later, thanks for the link.
