    Hi,
    Parallels 4 with Windows XP:

    I'd like to have "My Documents" in my windows VM directly mapped to user/documents on my Mac so when I click on "My Documents" in my VM, it automatically takes me to user/documents on my Mac. I had this working at one point but now it seems to have gone away since I had to restore my VM from backup.

    How do I get this mapping reestablished?

    thanks!

    Is Shared profile currently enabled? (Virtual machine -> Configure -> Shared profile). There is exactly the option you are talking about.

    If it does not work, due to some reason, try reinstalling Parallels Tools.
