Hi @Anders Bergdahl,

Welcome to the Microsoft Q&A Platform! Thank you for asking your question here.

To decrease the disk size of your Windows Virtual Machine, you generally can't directly shrink the OS disk. Instead, you can set up a new virtual machine with a smaller disk and transfer your data to it. Additionally, choosing a smaller disk size can help reduce costs.
