Updating Parallels Desktop
Parallels Desktop includes an updating feature that helps you keep your Parallels Desktop
installation up-to-date. You can use the update feature only if your computer is connected to the
Internet.
Update checks can be performed either automatically or manually.
 We recommend that you turn on automatic updating to be notified when an update is
available. Parallels Desktop will regularly check for available updates and inform you about
them.
 In addition to automatic updating, you can start the updating manually at any time.
Note: Before updating, you will be asked to quit Parallels Desktop. If you have any virtual
machines running or paused, suspend or shut them down. When you start or resume your virtual
machines after the update, reinstall Parallels Tools.
