So Parallels 7.0.15050 finally fixed a major graphics problem in Autodesk Revit that has been there for YEARS. 15052 saw it break again, and now 15054 causes Revit to crash upon save 100% of the time. I have no expectation that Parallels or Autodesk gives a flying @%#$ about either problem really, so not looking for a real fix. Just hoping to as painlessly as possible roll back to 15050. Anyone have any suggestions? Do I need to uninstall Parallels Tools first, then reinstall the older version and relaunch the VM? Or can I leave the newer PT installed and Parallels will be smart enough to install the "correct" version when I relaunch the VM? Also, as far as rolling back, do i need to do a compete reinstall, or is a Time Machine restore going to do the job? Depends I guess on how clean a Parallels install is. Hopefully it all lives in the one folder so a TM Restore actually works. I am desperate to actually get some work done, so I hope to get a little feedback before I start. The prospects of needing to start over from scratch with the Windows & Revit install as well as the Parallels install has me worried. I would rather not loose a day, so if there is a better/quicker solution I would rather go down that road. I also suspect that the correct answer for using Revit on a Parallels VM should be to have a backup copy of the VM with no PT installed, ready for use when another build of either shags everything. Anyone else doing similar when attempting to use Parallels in a mission critical way, not just for gaming? Business Use Best Practice would be a great thing to see documented, that is for sure. Thanks, Gordon
hello, If you want to rollback, you really should uninstall Parallels Tools first from your virtual machine. Then you can install the previous build of Paralells Desktop without uninstalling the current build, it will be done automatically. Then you will have to install Parallels Tools once again. If you encounter any problems, I recommend you to contact Parallels Technical Support: http://www.parallels.com/support/request/
