You said

Still, it might be safer to add the VHD to another virtual machine as a data volume and extend it there

Have you tried this? and does it work? I would like to shrink the system volume to a smaller size. I never thought about adding it to another system and using shrink. Does this work?

Hmm, this doesn't sound good. Did you already delete the source file? What virtualization program are you using? You could try another tool that supports VHDs (Hyper-V, Virtual PC, Virtual Server, VirtualBox). You could also try to to access the data.

Thanks for the great article. Unfortunately I tried following your advice and have run into a big problem. I downloaded VHD resizer and resized my VHD to 45g drive. When I started the server back up, it gave me this error: error4402: this disc cannot be read properly, please reinstall and try again.

I’m not sure how to fix this. Or if it is even fixable. Have I lost all my data on this drive? I hope not.
