3. go to disk to the virtual machine management, and then rescan disk (you will see the unused space)

4. open the cmd/command prompt, then run diskpart by using the diskpart command

5 then... the drive... After this list give the command "select disk 1" (1 is the disk you want to expand)

2. go to any other test VM and add disk--> disk existing use ==> give the drive path that you want to extend ==> Assistant to finish.

  • Is there a way to increase the text size in Windows 8 applications?

    Is there a way to increase the text size in Windows 8 applications?

    I find the way to text size too small in most news reader applications.  Looks like you should be able to increase or decrease the text size the same thing you do in a browser using CTRL + or CTRL-, or your mouse wheel.

    You can increase the size of the text on the desktop, but it doesn't have any effect on the subway, or whatever you call it today.

    Probably, there should be a setting to increase the size of the text under settings of PC!

    IMO, I would probably find a lot of people out there wouldn't buy a W8 Tablet since the text is to small to read!  This has fixed as soon as POSSIBLE!

    Edit: I noticed that a lot of Apps is updated to help with this problem.  Unfortunately not on the main screen of App, if you select an item to read the improvement will become visible or selectable.

    Hello

    On the start screen simply type the word "police" and select the filter settings on the right.  You should see an option 'Make text and other items more or less '.  Click on that and adjust the text or at the desired size.

    These instructions don't change the DPI of the screen ratio when it is in the classic user of Windows interface. The new interface Windows username however does not change when this setting is changed (which, in itself, is rather unfortunate).

    The only way to change the font size of Windows apps Store is as follows:

    1. click on the Start button to get the new user of Windows interface

    2 start typing 'police' (without the quotes)

    3. click on "settings".

    4. click on "enlarge everything on your screen; This opens the settings of PC (which is different from the classic Configuration screen)

    5. set "Enlarge everything on your screen" on it.

    Personally, I still find it too small for a lot of apps, but it's a small improvement on the default settings.

  • Is there a way to increase the size of aka msconfig window System Configuration?

    In windows 95 and 98, it was easy to increase the size of the System Configuration window, and there even a beautiful button "expand".

    It was possible to use the Win9X msconfig in XP, but it doesn't seem to work in Vista Home premium 64. Is it possible to increase the size of the window? Can I change a setting of registry or something in the .exe itself?

  • Is there a way to increase the size of the 30 GB C; Partition by using the Go 657 668 score Go free?

    I tried without success again.

    I can reduce the 675 GB and create a new partition. I see just to understand how to develop the 30 GB C; Partition it doesn't show the Option expand.

    I tried to change the default values and did not like the results.

    For me now, it would be more logical to extend the 30 GB.

    It's free and very easy to use / no calculator is needed.

  • Is there a method to increase the font size in an Adobe Connect session?

    I have a 4 k screen on my laptop.  Web sites fine-scale but when I'm in an Adobe Connect session, the scale is far and the font size seems to be something like pt.5, if that.  Is there a way to increase the font size of the Acrobat Connect Pro sections?  Change the resolution on my laptop does not solve the problem.Capture.JPG

    This is the resolution that I get no matter if I'm at 1024 x 768 or 3840 x 2160.  It's too hard for my split screen to be read by others.

    That's all! By using the. exe.manifest fix (http://www.danantonielli.com/adobe-app-scaling-on-high-dpi-displays-fix/) on FlashUtil_ActiveX.exe in C:\Windows\SysWOW64(32 if there are 32 bit OS) \Macromed\Flash and then open it in Internet Explorer works! The scaling works on my 4 k screen!

  • Increase the size of virtual hard disk to a virtual computer with snapshots

    Is it possible to increase the size of a virtual hard disk on a virtual machine that has snapshots on this subject?  I can use VMware converter to increase the size of the disk, but who commits snapshots during the conversion-

    Thank you

    As everybody said that it is not a good idea to increase the space for a VM with a snapshot.   The snapshot files are all related originally vmdk and when you change this vmdk he breaks the link.

    A particular reason that you cannot commit the snapshot before adding the space.

    The fonts themselves, or one of the font attributes cannot be changed; (size, color, tabs or alignment)

    Although it would be very helpful to change the font size, in normal circumstances, this should not be a problem; comments are designed as a personal note by the designer and should only ever be seen by them.

  • Is there a way to set the font size as default in WordPad - Windows 7?

    In Windows 7, is there a way to set the default value in WordPad to Courier 10? I see no place to set the default value. I save my changes and when I close and reopen the document it's back to Courier 11 and the spacing is all off. I create documents for customers who need very specific settings (including a 10 - PT font.) to copy and paste resumes to online applications. Once I have send the plain text for them, they, also, versions I can save these specific parameters. It's extremely frustrating; in XP and Vista, I was able to save 10-PT policy documents. I don't see why this was changed. Any suggestions? Anyone at MS have the power to solve this problem?

    I created a document called a new Doc - highlighted space vacuum-made my the font changes and size and saved.  So when I want a document with my size settings and the police, I opened my new Doc.  Make sure that when you save it you rename this new Doc remains empty.  I created a shortcut on the desktop and open the new Doc instead of WordPad.   I guess you can do your employees.  I hope this helps.

    Hi kevin7frg,

    You can go to "file > create > scanner > configure presets PDF»

    The dialog box that appears, you can choose 8.5 X 11 as the default width and height of PDF pages to scan.

    Hope that helps.

  • Once combine files, it is too large to e-mail. Is there a way to reduce the size of the file?

    Combine files and now it is too large to send. Is there a way to reduce the size of the file converted into Adobe?

    Hi yodonna,

    Adobe Reader does not reduce the size of a PDF file, such as Acrobat. But, you can download this file to your Acrobat.com account and create an anonymous link using Adobe send. Then you can send this link by e-mail. You can access Adobe send to https://cloud.acrobat.com/send. Create an anonymous link function does not require that you have an Adobe membership send.

    Best,

  • Is there a way to reduce the size of images without doing it in photoshop?

    Hi all

    I have a document with a ton of images, all of high resolution press ready. I need now this doc to the web, even at low resolution, the pdf file is still 6 MB.

    Is there a way to reduce the images in the file for the web without batch processing in photoshop? Just curious.

    See you soon

    S

    You should be able to reduce the size of the PDF file by changing export settings. In the export settings you can flatten transparency (PDF 1.3 can produce a smaller file), convert CMYK to RGB (output > color Conversion), lower quality of resolution and compression (Compression tab).

  • Is there a way to extend the UI font size?

    Menu bars (for example 'file', 'Edit', 'View', etc.) and the different buttons on the user interface of fireworks are extremely low. Normally, this would indicate that my screen resolution is bad, but it's just for other applications such as Chrome, Word and so on. Is there a way to make the interface more user?

    Non - work on a screen high resolution retina and Fireworks does not support that. It will never, since Adobe stopped development and support from 2013.

    If you're on a mac, you can force FW to start in low resolution (Get Info--> open in low resolution). Which will open the FW with expansion, adjacent to the search icons.

    If you are working on a Windows machine, you're out of luck. Or change the resolution of the screen to a twice lower (who defeated the purpose of your screen high-resolution nice).
