Hi.
I am new to Hazel and come from Windows environment.

I wanted to view the Hazel log but as soon as I clicked the
View log button, my macbook pro started
Parallels and Notepad from Windows 7, which is installed
in my computer. How can I avoid this and start the log viewing
in Textedit for the Mac or any other comment would be
welcome.

Thanks in advance

Looks like Parallels/Notepad are being a bit overzealous in claiming the .log files. I suggest going to your Library/Logs folder and selecting any log file in there that has a .log extension. Do "Get Info" in Finder and then click the "Open with:" pop-up. There, select Console, located in /Applications/Utilities. Then do "Change All..." to apply it to all log files. That should hopefully fix it for Hazel (as well as any other log files in the system).
