Utiiities 16 on Windows 7/64. Cannot open Windows XP Virtual PC - it now demands a password

I almost wish I had never bought Norton Utilities.

I run Windows 7 64-bit, and need to use certain legacy XP applications.

CRITICAL PROBLEM: I used to click to open Windows XP Virtual PC and it just loaded up. Since running various Norton Utilities functions, including deep defrag (which deletes my previous restore points - no option not to), I cannot open XP Virtual PC. It demands a password, which I never set it up to require; so I can no longer use my XP applications. I just can't get in.

(On a less critical issue, I use CuteFTP Pro to manage and upload to various web sites; but Norton Utilities wipes all the upload data every time I run NU; so I have to manually restore the CuteFTP Pro data file from a backup file.)

This is a pain in the neck.

Any ideas how to fix this anyone?

H-E-L-P !!
