How to do?
From Host, the command line is:
C:\Windows\system32>cd C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox
C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox>VBoxManage modifyhd H:\Leloup\LinuxMint19Mate.vdi --resize 45000 (the desired size in Mio)
0%...10%...20%...30%...40%...50%...60%...70%...80%...90%...100%
(Other ways are possible: fdisk, from the VirtualBox machine manager,...)
From Guest,
Boot Guest called here LinuxMint19Mate on the
linuxmint-19-mate-64bit-v2.iso disk.
Keyboard by default is QUERTY so $
setxkbmap fr allows you to come back in AZERTY.
