VMWare Disk size error after backup?
#3
I tried cleaning up the VM in the General preferences pane - it was reporting on the Virtual Disk-s002.vmdk file rather than the primary Windows file, but the program seemed to handle the issues. The Virtual Disk.vmdk file now has 60 GB of space in the Hard Disk pane and Windows shows a disk size of 54.9 GB. After the cleanup there are only 17 .vmdk files in the bundle totaling about 60 GB and VMWare/Windows 10 started normally. I selected 'automatic cleanup' to avoid this problem moving forward.

The total Windows bundle is now only 76 GB, so I guess the problem is solved! I'll do a second backup with this smaller file today. Thanks.
