    I want to change the size of a virtual disk from 15Gb to 30Gb, so I closed Parallels Desktop and started the Image Tool. I chose "Increase size of the virtual hard disk", and navigated to my hdd file, which showed as 14900Mb. I changed the "New Size" to 30000Mb and started the process. It ran slowly for about 60% of the progress bar, and then quickly finished. I looked at my hdd file properties in the Mac finder, and it is still 14.9Gb -- not 30Gb. This is the actual hdd file size on the Mac disk.

    What's going on?

    I'm running the latest beta (registerd), and I have about 60Gb free on the physical disk.

    I need to get this thing bigger! :confused:

    Thanks for any help. :)
