Clean up a Virtual Machine
You can perform a manual or automated cleanup of certain virtual machines to free up space on
your Mac. The cleanup compacts and defragments the virtual machine.
When you delete files from your virtual machine, Fusion does not return the space to your Mac.

n Compacts the virtual machine and returns freed space to your Mac.
Note Only Windows virtual machines return freed space to your Mac.
n Defragments the virtual machine.

snapshot files can be left on the virtual machine when manually deleting a snapshot fails.
