Drumma56 Posted February 5, 2023 Share Posted February 5, 2023 I have just installed Tiny Win 11 Pro (GREAT PRODUCT!). I needed to increase the VM Ware disk size, which I have done but Win 11 Tiny doesn't recognize the change. It still only sees the original created storage space. I have tried DISKPART command line options etc. to no avail. I also tried adding the Disk Management feature in Windows 11 and it says can't be installed. Has anybody ran into this scenario?

Drumma56 Posted February 5, 2023 Author Share Posted February 5, 2023 Update - the increased 10GB shows up in Disk Management. Is there a way to merge into C Drive?

Jim K Global Moderator Posted February 5, 2023 Global Moderator Share Posted February 5, 2023 Think you would need to remove the recovery partition.

Drumma56 Posted February 5, 2023 Author Share Posted February 5, 2023 Thanks for the response Jim. If I right click on the Recovery partition all it shows is HELP.

Brandon H Supervisor Posted February 6, 2023 Supervisor Share Posted February 6, 2023 another option if you hadn't found that would have been to download a gparted ISO and boot your VM into that to delete the recovery partition and expand C Drumma56 1 Share Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1425563-tiny-windows-11-pro-changing-vm-ware-disk-size/#findComment-598795953 Share on other sites More sharing options...
