  2. VHD (Virtual Hard Disk) uses space from C: disk??

    I don't understand, I thought download a file into a VHD means the file takes space from VHD, but, when I download a file it takes space both 2 hard disk with a same file size it takes(Example: Download 1GB file = C: disk minus 1GB and the VHD minus 1GB).

    Now my question is: How is exactly VHD works and how to stop it from taking space from C: .(Notice that the VHD is in the C: disk)

    Sorry if grammar error.

    Unallocated Space to C Drive

    Hi Travis,

    It appears that a disk partition was created but was never assigned its allocation. Assuming there are no files stored in the unallocated partition, perform these steps to combine it with your C: drive:

    • In Disk Management, right-click on (CWhy is VHD taking Space from C drive? :) which appears next to the
      Unallocated partition.
    • Select Extend.

    Let us know if you're able to combine the spaces after following the steps above.

    Regards.
