Recently I was attempting to create a VM for Ubuntu on one of my drives, but realized that the disk was too full for me to allocate the amount of memory I needed for a virtual hard disk.
As a workaround, I tried creating the vdi on a separate drive, but was met with the following message:
You don't have permission to save in this location.
Contact the administrator to obtain permission.
Would you like to save in the [user] folder instead?
I am registered as an admin on my computer, so I'm unsure why I was given this prompt.
Why is this, and is it possible to create a virtual hard disk on a drive other than the one in which the vm is installed?
Thanks in advance.
