virtual machine win xp cannot be opened

Hi,

after restarting my mac I can't open the virtual machine any more. A restart didn't help, a reinstallation didn't help either.

This is what Parallel Desktop says:

Virtual machine Microsoft Windows XP cannot be opened since it is already used in another Parallels Desktop window.

Any help?

Common problem. Search the forum for ".lock" to find several answers.

 

thanks, that was helpful.
