Parallels Desktop - How to open up Windows without invoking the admin password? - edgarbc1 - 09-24-2008
Is there a way to start up Parallels without requiring
an admin username and password?
I am currently using the shortcut placed on the desktop
of my Mac to start up Parallels and i looked through
the preferences and cannot seem to find a way to
disable admin access information.
The reason is I would like the Windows partition available
to my kid but without letting her know my admin info.
TIA!
Edgar

It's the OS that requires the password. If you used just a virtual drive, you wouldn't be asked for the PW.

Create a different account for her to use the windows side of life, but not being an admin.
