What can I tidy up in this Hyper-V VM?

[tribz]

My hd on this virtual machine should be 50GB but with all the other files which I think are snapshots, its closer to 150GB. I'd like to trim it down to just whats needed, no snapshots etc. What is safe to delete from below ?

Volume in drive D is Data
Volume Serial Number is FAB6-E442

Using the Hyper-V manager you should be able to see all the snapshots for the VM.

If you no longer need them you can right click & delete them in the manager which will then merge the changes, however I believe the VM needs to be shut down for this to happen (at least whenever I've done it it does)

Hope that helps?

Thanks for that, I cant see the snapshots in the Hyper V manager though?

Edit, sorry ... right in front of me!
