Increasing vdi volume fails on Windows 10
Posted: 27. Jan 2017, 13:20
Dear VM Users,
I've encountered an issue with increasing an existing Windows 10 30 GB disk to a 50 GB volume.
I'm used to do that with Win 7 images using the command syntax "vboxmanage modifyhd {VDI file name and path} --resize 51200 as an example, which works like a charm. The same executed on a Win 10 image gives the message.
--------------------------------------------------
C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox> vboxmanage modifyhd "D:\Virtual Box Images\Windows 10 #1\HISWIN10_1.vdi" --resize 61440
0%...
Progress state: VBOX_E_NOT_SUPPORTED
VBoxManage.exe: error: Resize medium operation for this format is not implemented yet!
--------------------------------------------------
I'm using 5.1.14 r 112924
Doesn't Vbox support this option on a Windows 10 vdi, or is this pilot error?
looking forward to any comments
Kindest Regards
Rob
