Re: Virtual PC crash

Has anybody a suggestion?
Does it crash when loading Windows or at another point? What sort of error does it give you, if any?
You can do some minor plist troubleshooting. Navigate to
/Users/username/Library/Preferences/Virtual PC 6.1 Preferences/. (It might be 6.0, I'm not sure. I have 6.0 so I don't know if it changes the folder name on upgrade.)
Pull the "Preferences.vpf" file out and either leave it on the desktop or put it in a safe folder where you'll remember its location. Then launch VPC.
You might need to register VPC again, but it's worth seeing if it will crash.
