[QUOTE="simmerskool, post: 1123967, member: 61091"] What's the best way to remove a VM Guest OS from VMware 17? I have several VM Guests on one ssd, I normally only run one Guest at a time. Today when I open a win10 Guest I got a popup from VMware saying "there is not enough space on the disk" & Retry did not work & cancel immediately shutdown the Guest. So looking at that ssd from Host, yes that ssd has only 40 kb free! Obvious option is just delete one of the Guest OS on that ssd. Question: is there an option in VMware to remove a Guest? If so, I haven't found it, yet. Or do I just go into the Host and delete the directory (aka folder) with one of the Guests and all files in that folder? Semi-related question, can I just delete some snapshots from various Guests to free up space, but I did try that once before and then at boot a Guest said it was missing from an earlier snapshot and failed to boot. (Vmware used to have good support for the paid Workstation, but with Broadcom it seems like "good night & good luck" if you can thru their support portal at all. [/QUOTE]
