    According to the user's guide, I should see this in "All Programs" in the Start menu. I have everything set up in the VM configuration and have tried the Populate commands multiple times. Am I missing something? Is this feature only for Parallels disk images instead of using a Boot Camp partition (which is what I'm doing)?

    Thanks,
    Steve

    I'm using AVG on the Windows side. Shared folders are enabled. Build 5608.
