Hi,

We use StarWind version 3.5.4 to create Growing Disk.

When we delete data in growing disk the free space not growing in the physical disk.

How can reduce space (not really use) by this growing disk.

Best Regards.

Unfortunately you'll need to create new volume and copy all the content from the old one in file mode. To "shrink" we need to parse NTFS and it's a whole overkill for our product. We're looking for other solution to this issue however.
