The method 1 is applicable to versions above 10.0. Select the settings of the virtual machine in the menu, then select expansion in [Utilities] on the hard disk to be expanded, select the expanded capacity in the next dialog box, and then click [Expansion].

Method 2: If the VMware version is low, you can't operate in the graphical interface, but don't worry, VMware has always provided command-line tools, and it is more powerful. In the command line interface, enter the program directory of VMware, find vmware-vdiskmanager.exe, run without parameters first, and check the usage help information. We see that the -x parameter is used to expand the hard disk capacity, followed by an ex example. Now, we need to expand the vm_Windows XP.vmdk hard disk in the F:\vm_Windows XP directory to 80GB, just execute: "C: \ Program files (x86) \ VMware \ VMware workstation \ VMware-vdiskmanager. Exe "-X80GB" f: \ VM _ Windows XP \ VM _ Windows XP. VMDK "Note that for easy understanding, I have written the paths of the command file and the disk file. Double quotation marks are because there are spaces in the long path file name.
