I have a problem with my parallels desktop for Mac 13 version. the hard drive size of parallels increases immense. my windows 10 partition ist about 20 GB and if I look into my systeminformation for hard drives, there I can see that parallels VM needs up to 70 GB space. whats wrong here?

kind regards
Steffen

Hi SteffenA1. Chances are that the virtual machine in use isn't the only virtual machine present on the Mac. Please follow these steps to try and locate other virtual machines on your computer.
 
Hi all, thanks for your replies. It was because I had old VMs which were uploaded in iCloud Drive. these VMs were downloaded automatically. Because of my problem this thread can be closed.
