Can't compact Vista HD

I get the following message when I try to use the Disk Compact Tool in Vista:
"Your security privileges cannot allow you to compact volume C:\"

I'm logged in as an admin? Any way around this?

 

Hello. Thank you for report. I have reproduced your situation.
It's problem of Vista security.
I have workaround for you:
1. In guest OS close Parallels Tools Center.
2. Go to C:\Program Files\Parallels\Parallels Tools\
3. Right button click on ParallelsToolsCenter.exe -> choose "Run as Administrator" -> now you can run Tools Center with all Admin privileges and can operate with disk C:\
4. Run disk compacting.

 

Thanks, that works.

 

This doesn't work for me. I still get the same error: "Your security privileges cannot allow you to compact volume C:\"

I had posted about this a while back here: http://forum.parallels.com/showthread.php?p=52310

Any ideas?

 

Please use Actions -> Run Parallels Compressor.
