Hi, Yea qubes has a problem with shrinking the image size after it's been expanded. https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/resize-disk-image/ The easiest thing is probably just to leave it as it is. The template isn't really using that much space and qubes manager will show how much space it's actually using. You can redownload a fresh template and start again too tho. -- Jackie -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
