After that error I cannot run it, I can only retry or delete it.

I tried to copy the downloaded file and add it to my parallels' list and it goes

Hi, I am getting the exact same issue, Did you manage to get a solution to the problem ?

Yep, I found a solution, download it and when it fail don't stop or close it, go in your parallels' vm directory and copy the .pvm file, close the failed installation and remove it from the vm list, after that double click on the .pvm file to add it, finish!

Thank you so much for the prompt reply, with a perfect answer as well to fix the problem. The only thing I had to do extra was after removing the vm from the list I had to shutdown parallels completely and relaunch before it was happy to add the vm back in.
