Symptoms
I have remapped Cmd to act as Ctrl inside a Windows virtual machine via a third-party application. For some reason, Cmd acts as Ctrl in the virtual machine but only when it's pressed in combination with another key.
Cause
Parallels Desktop doesn't support any kind of alteration of the guest's keyboard layout performed inside the virtual machine.
Resolution
If you need to change some keys assignments, you should perform it in Parallels Desktop Preferences > Shortcuts for an exact virtual machine as described in User's Guide.
