#How to increase storage on virtualbox ubuntu code#
VBoxManage: error: Details: code NS_ERROR_INVALID_ARG (0x80070057), component VirtualBox, interface IVirtualBox, callee nsISupports VBoxManage: error: Cannot register the hard disk '/media/data/winxp_vm/wim.vdi' already exists The suggestion below gives this error VBoxManage modifyhd wim.vdi -resize 20000 Is there an easy way to increase it to, say, 20 GB? I can't see any obvious option in VirtualBox settings. I have run out of space on my WinXP virtual machine, which I only gave 10 GB space for when I created it.
