Are still an issue. What I do is research what the update is. Most .NET updates are easy to solve and well discussed so I won't repeat the usual. Have the IT staffer research the KB number and some, like Windows Defender will always repeat. Again, I'd be duplicating the web on that one.
Microsoft did some odd things about the licensing so ask Parallels about the license issue. If you were ripped off, then you need to settle that as no one but the seller or Microsoft can correct that.

We bought new IMac's and a Mini Mac server for our office and have installed parallels to operate Windows 8. (necessary for Quick Books with Payroll)
We have had and are having numerous problems with the windows side.
1- On one computer windows 8 needs to do updates and it always updates then reverses the updates do to failure updating.
We had a problem with getting windows 8 activated because it would reject the activation code.
The reason we were told this was happening is because we are a fresh install and the windows 8 disk was reading it as an update. Even though we paid for the full version.
We have had the IT people we hire look at this and they have no answers .
2 - We have a quick books issue and Office 365 Excell problem on one computer.
When exporting the spreadsheets you only have one option and its the .CSV file option to export, the others are greyed out : new workbook isn't available.
This is only happening on one IMac. It works perfectly on the others.
Any solutions would be appreciated.
