1. Shut down the VM
2. Right click the VM, choose Edit Settings, click the hard disk, type in new disk size in GB, Click OK.
3. Start VM
4. Start a CMD prompt
5. Run: Diskpart
6. Run the following commands:

List volume
Select volume 2 (if volume 2 corresponds to D drive)
Extend
Exit

7. Done. Reboot to be sure.
