Is there a way to create an Alias or shortcut that directly starts into a specific virtual machine? I'd like to create an Alias for Alfred so I can type 'Windows 8'. It would then start Parallels and directly load up my W8 VM. Seems this would be easy, but I searched and couldn't find an answer. Thanks!
Find your VM (generally in your Ducuments/Parallels/ folder), right-clik and Make Alias, put your alias where you want. If you want, you can cut the "alias" part of its name. Also, without creating an alias, double-clicking the VM document file, will open the VM.
