    Hello

    I am Sidney, an independent Microsoft expert, and also a customer just like you. I will try to help you resolving your issue.

    Be aware that everything inside your virtual disk will be deleted.

    In order to delete a virtual disk , you will need to:

    - press Window + R at the same time

    - Execute ‘diskmgmt.msc’ and click OK

    - The Disk Management window will open

    - Please right-click on the virtual disk listed in the Volume column (your 10 Gb drive)

    Then you can extend your main disk so that it uses the new allocated space.

    Best,

    Sidney
