Hi

 

I extended my VM fusion for mac virtual machine disk but its only half showing...

 

I have the latest version of VMware fusion and i am running a windows 7 virtual machine.  My Win 7 virtual machine c drive was running out of space so i went to Virtual Machine > Settings > Hard Disk and used the slider to increase the disk size from 100 GB to 250 GB.

 

  • Now when I right click the C drive from My Computer it is showing the old size still (100 GB)

 

  • From the Windows 7 Computer Management console it is only half showing the changed size. See image attached.  The (C:) volume is showing the old size but the Disc 0 (which is the same thing) is showing the new larger size.

Notes:

 

  • I have no snap shots
  • I have also booted to gparted-live to check from there and that is showing the new larger size as it should be.
  • When i right clcik the drive from the computer management console in Win 7 the 'Expand'option is greyed out.

 

Can anyone please help with how I can get C: drive to show the full new capacity?

 

 

Many thanks in advance. Matt
