Update procedure in Windows primary OS consists of the following steps: 

1  Getting known about a new update. 

We recommend that you use the auto-update feature incorporated into Parallels Workstation 
to be informed when new update is available. Auto-update feature regularly checks the 
Parallels server and informs when the update is found. See Auto-Updating Parallels 
Workstation in Windows (page 36).  

Instead you may check for new updates using Update Wizard or manually on Parallels site. 

2  Downloading and installing Parallels Workstation update. 

There are two ways to download an update: 

ƒ  Using the Update Wizard.  

If you use the auto-update feature, it informs you when the update is available and 
launches the Parallels Update Wizard for downloading. If you do not use the auto-
update feature, you are able to start Parallels Update Wizard manually. See Update 
Wizard in Windows (page 37).  

After you download the update using Update Wizard, the latter automatically launches 
the Setup Wizard for installation. 

ƒ  Manually from Parallels site. 

If you have downloaded the update manually, perform an ordinary Parallels Workstation 
installation. See Parallels Workstation for Windows: Step-by-Step Installation (page 
16).
