    I have been running the latest non-beta for some time. I have allways been able to press Command-Tab to switch between OS X applications but suddently I am unable to do this IF the mouse is in the window of the virtual machine and input has been captured. In Windows it now switches to the taskbar for some reason. If I move the mouse out of the VM (with the VM still activated) it works fine. And yes, I have the Parallels tools installed :)

    I have tried to install Windows in a new VM - same result. I have also reinstalled Paralells without luck. Since it isn't the VM that is at fault it must be some keymapping in Paralells, but that should have been fixed by the reinstall? Does anyone have an idea?

    Regards,

    Jacob

    Parallels uninstall does not delete preferences, and reinstall respects existing ones, so any key mapping set up in Parallels preferences probably won't change through a reinstall. Have a look at preferences and see if changing some key mapping will help. Note that the reinstall didn't require that you reenter your activation key.
