I have a 250GB hard drive in my MacBook Pro and run a Windows virtual machine that consumes 150GB of that hard disc space. Of course most of the rest of the hard disc stores the Mac operating system and applications. I have literally only 15 GB of free space left.
Looking at the hard disc settings in Fusion (V5) it recommends cleanup of the virtual machine and under general it says that I have 49GB of reclaimable space in that virtual machine. However if I click on cleanup it says that it cannot be completed because there is not enough free space in the file system. I should try again after I have freed up 65 GB which of course I cannot do...
Any idea how I can get out of this situation. Is it possible to use an external hard drive temporarily to create that space?
Thank you!
