    MacOS X 10.9.5, Guest OS - Windows 7 Pro 64 Bit, Parallels 10
    After upgrade Parallels to 10.1.1 (it happened yesterday) a lot of my user data from Windows folder Users/username were disappeared.
    Include TrueCrypt container with 160+ Gb of very important files.
    Virtual Windows HDD - 320Gb, before upgrade it has approx 250Gb of data, but now - just 53Gb.
    i don't know how to restore my user data and how Parallels team start to sell product w/o a lot of tests.

    not good, 0 support from Parallels team, "please wait information from support"
    but more than 90% of information restored from backups, mails, etc
    now i will use Bootcamp on my Macbook, i'm not a Parallels beta tester

    RSA, did you use a timemachine for backups?
    Did you backup your virtual machine directory ever?
