This has to be a new one. I installed a trail of Parallels on my Mac about two months ago. I didn't like it and deleted it. A week later, while in a Mac application called Unison I still saw Parallels associations for .wmv and other Windows files. I wiped my drive (not because of this) and reinstalled Mac. I backed up my old install using SuperSuper. Everything was fine with a clean Unison on a clean Mac until I attached the SuperDuper drive to access a file I needed. Somehow my NEW CLEAN INSTALL has grabbed all the Parallels file associations and I have NEVER installed it on THIS computer! Grrr! I can't get rid of them! I go into Unison and see Parallels icons everywhere! HELP!
Hi, It seems you haven't removed Parallels Desktop properly from initial system. Please use http://kb.parallels.com/en/9087 to complete uninstall.
I think you have the accent on the wrong si-laab-ill as they say. I used YOUR uninstaller so you didn't uninstall Parallels correctly. But, it looks, so far, that this worked. THANKS! (Couldn't there be a way to compile this into a script instead of having to enter 20 lines manually?)
Actually these commands are compiled to uninstaller. Obviously something blocked it on your Mac. Anyway - I'm glad the solution managed to fix the issue.
Nope. It didn't work. I still have associations to Parallels in Panic Unison and I NEVER installed it on my Mac... it was on my old HD (see 1st post). Any ideas?
Is there any opportunity to boot from a backup drive as a primary one? In case you can do that, uninstall option should remove everything related to Parallels. It didn't work because it tried to find Parallels files on a primary drive where you had never installed Parallels Desktop.
