I need professional opinions on this subjective question.
The man that does programming for me has a daughter attending the
University of Cincinnati. She uses a Mac but there are some courses
that require Windoze, so he loaded Parallels. All went well for
awhile and one night she shut down Windows and the next day it was
toast.
To their dismay they found that all the files were inside one huge
file, not individual files as you would need to find what you wanted
to recover. All her work was lost.
He then moved her to Boot Camp and now all the files are individual as
you would need. I don't really want to use Boot Camp for I need to
have a Mac program running while I use the one program inside Windows,
(Office Access database) so what is the solution? Did my friend have
this configured wrong and is there a way to have Parallels save
individual files?
The Windoze program that I will be using will be used for a short time
only, (until I can get the database written for a Mac) but it is from
a friend almost 400 miles from here so I don't want to take a chance
that something goes wrong and I am not close enough to reinstall easily.
All ideas are sure welcomed.
John
