 +==== Shrink VHDX ====
  
-===== Shrink VHDX ===== +The virtual disks (VHDX) for the WSL2 VMs will grow to contain all the container data. If they get too big you have to do an offline shrink operation to get them back to a smaller size.
- +
-If WSL2 is used as Docker +
  
 +Make sure, the Docker Engine is stopped and close Docker Desktop for Windows.
  
 +Shutdown the WSL2 distributions.
 +<code>
 +wsl --shutdown
 +</code>
  
 +Shrink both disks with "Full" mode. Check this [[https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/hyper-v/optimize-vhd?view=windowsserver2022-ps|link]] for more information about the trimming modes.
 +<code>
 Optimize-VHD -Path "C:\Users\xxx\AppData\Local\Docker\wsl\data\ext4.vhdx" -Mode Full Optimize-VHD -Path "C:\Users\xxx\AppData\Local\Docker\wsl\data\ext4.vhdx" -Mode Full
 Optimize-VHD -Path "C:\Users\xxx\AppData\Local\Docker\wsl\main\ext4.vhdx" -Mode Full Optimize-VHD -Path "C:\Users\xxx\AppData\Local\Docker\wsl\main\ext4.vhdx" -Mode Full
 +</code>
 +
 +If Optimize-VHD is done, just start Docker Desktop for Windows again.
  
 +Example.
