    Hi. How do I go back to using alt-control to bring down the Parallels menu bar instead of having the menu bar appears automatically when I move the cursor to the top of the screen? The reason is that the menu bar always gets in the way when I need to click on something along the top of the screen. That is really a big step back from previous versions of Parallels. Thanks.

    I've been having problems with this too... I dunno how it changed away from using alt-control and I dunno how to change it back. This doesn't matter so much with Win7 but with Win8 it's really a pain.

    HELP!

    Oh my gosh after two and half years this problem has FINALLY been fixed in Parallels 8. Now when you move the cursor to near the top of the full screen window there would be a delay before the Parallels menu bar appears. This is Parallels' way of asking you "do you REALLY want the menu bar to appear?".
