    In my Parallels Desktop 10 I have an installation with Windows 8.1 and an installation with Windows 7 - both with the newest updates. But I can not find in these installations the "Get Windows 10 App". How can I get this App in order to preregister for Windows 10 ??

    Hi turner1948,
    It's seems to be a Windows issue.
    If you don't see the Get Windows 10 app on your PC, it might be because:

    1.Your device isn't up-to-date with at least Windows 7 SP1 or Windows 8.1 Update.
    2.Windows Update is turned off or is not set to received updates automatically.
    3.You've blocked or uninstalled the necessary Windows Update functionality.
    4.Your device is not running genuine Windows.
    Running Windows Update and installing any available updates will fix the first three issues. Need more help? Go to Microsoft Windows Community Forum.

    PCs that we determine cannot run Windows 10 will not see the Get Windows 10 app before July 29, 2015. After July 29, 2015, we'll enable the icon in the system tray. This is to help ensure that you can easily check your PC's compatibility if you choose.

    If your device is managed as part of a school or business network, please check with your IT administrator about upgrading to Windows 10.

    I have done all steps 1-4 before - but there is no Get Windows 10 app.

    But if I understand you right, then can I in a Windows 7 or 8.1 guest system running under Parallels Desktop on a mac as host system not see the Get Windows 10 app before July 29, 2015.
