    Hi,
    I was fooling around with making a new 'stack' in Leopard and inadvertently erased my XP icon; it's the yellow pretzel-type icon, but the XP version that actually launches my VM with one click.

    Does anyone know how I might get this back? I've looked into Parallels Explorer but my iMac won't let me create any alias from the virtual disk icon there or the virtual machine icon there.

    I appreciate any help on this, ....Many Thanks, Frank B.

    The icon was on my desktop and I think it got lost in a program folder. I thought I didn't need the program folder anymore because I though I had all my stuff put into the stack.

    So I trashed the program folder and voila, my xp icon was gone.

    I hope that helps. Thanks, Frank

    HEY!! I found it!!

    When writing my reply to you just above, it gave me the idea to look into my Documents folder. Sure enough, there was a Parallels folder there that had a XP icon copy.

    I kept looking in the Applications folders, so I didn't expect to find it this way. But it's solved now!

    Many Thanks for your assistance,...Frank B.
