    The disk used by the "Windows 7" virtual machine can be compressed only when it is stopped or running.
    Please resume the virtual machine or shut it down, and then try again.
    Problem id: 489

    Nothing in the help section solves the problem.
    I quit windows, quit parallels, restart parallels and try to restart windows but get the same message. I can't do anything in VM config: "To be able to change the settings on this page, resume the vm and then shut it down"

    There are no snapshots.

    I can open and close Parallels. It is Windows 7 that I cannot resume.

    Hi ManjoK
    I have tried what you suggested and still get the same error msg 489. I press 'resume' and nothing happens. What else can I do? Thank you for your help

    Hello CherylB1, please go to Action (from Mac menu bar) and select Reset and then check how it works.
