    "Expanding Disk" is not expanding automatically. Getting a lot of " low disk space" msgs in Windows VM that I can no longer solve with compression or deleting files. Tried resizing in configuration panel but received error message: "Resizing failed. Unable to resize the last volume. The file system of this volume might be damaged or not supported."
    Any ideas?

    Problem resolved itself. Tried expanding manually again and it worked.

    I think that the manual procedure and methods to resize the disk is very cumbersome. I had once experienced a situation when my Macbook Pro was working very slowly and someone told me to resize the Mac volume to enhance the speed. I tried to do it manually but was frustrated after a few while. Alternatively, I download Tidy Up Mac software that automatically resized and created a new mac partition and my PC speed was enhanced 3 fold times.
