    Hi,

    I hardly use Parallel desktop since I only need to access to Windows only as needed. I have purchased a new MacBook and wish to move the Windows from the old MacBook to the new MacBook. Please advise me how to backup and restore the entire Windows from the old mac to the new mac.

    Thank you for helping.

    Regards,
    James HO

    Hello jameshoty,

    To use the same virtual machine you used on your old Mac to your new Mac, you should copy its .pvm file to an external storage or any back up and move it to your new Mac.

    For more information about transferring a virtual machine file (.pvm file) to a new Mac or to an external drive, please follow: http://kb.parallels.com/114118
