I get parallels and all it's done for me so far is screw up my computer and give me "viruses" so says this very sketchy random malware cleaning thing that I never even downloaded. I want to completely remove this and better yet get windows 7 instead of 8…. windows is probably the source of all these virus things. How can I get rid of this and put windows 7 on?

Hi JasonG2,
You cannot downgrade from Windows 8 to Windows 7 but you can uninstall Windows 8 and install Windows 7 as a new VM.
To uninstall or delete a Virtual machine, follow the steps as suggested at http://kb.parallels.com/5029
To install Windows 7 VM, follow the steps as suggested at http://kb.parallels.com/4729
Thanks,
Abdul
