Windows 10: How do I reclaim allocated space on A shared storage cluster after I have deleted a .vxhd?

Ok My Shared Storage Cluster is almost completely full. I am in the process of getting a new server and more staorage but for now I need to clean up my current one. I found a VM that had a 500GB hard drive that was not being used. I dismounted the drive in the VM and removed it from the VM settings then I deleted the .vxhd file from the shared storage, but the drive is still showing the exact same usage. I have emptied all the recycle bins and have manually checked and the drive is not there. How can I get the space back that the drive used to occupy? Oh yeah, my HOSTS are both windows 2019 he

Reclaim Un-allocated Space (Formally System Reserved)

Hello,

I previously had run low on disk space on my Operating System Drive (SSD 250GB), my operating system (Windows 7) created a system reserved space (100MB) and placed the boot files there, this creates a warning on log in that a temporary paging file has been
created.

I have now cloned this drive to a new 1TB Corsair SSD (Including the system reserved partition) with Active Boot Disk software. I have reclaimed un-allocated space on the new drive which was not identified during the cloning process. As the boot files were
being stored on the system reserved partition, I conducted a "boot fix" on my Windows 7 Disc. This placed my boot files into the main partition and then I proceeded to make the main partition active and deleted the system reserved partition (now un-allocated).

Windows now boots from the main partition as intended,

However in Disk Manager, an un-allocated space created by the system reserved function exists and the Temporary Paging File Warning still appears on start-up, even though the new SSD has 800+GB of free space and the main partition is the
boot partition. Also, the left most partition is the 100MB un-allocated space that I wish to reclaim but the option to extend the main partition is greyed out in and not available in active boot disk software and disk manager. I have tried to make the disk
"dynamic" but it warns me there is not enough "space" on either partition to do so, which is simply not true.

TLR

I want to:

1. Merge the left most 100MB un-allocated partition (previously system reserved) with the main 800+GB partition
2. Remove the temp paging file alert on start up

Thank you in advance for any advice.

Wade.

 

Reclaim storage space

I have deleted old unnecessary admin user profiles from the windows 10 installation but their user files are not getting deleted from the windows drive. I am also unable to reset the pc. The old files amount to 400 gb on a 500 gb drive. I also suspect
though my cloud back ups are complete local onedrive file stamps are making it impossible to reclaim space
