When you upgrade your VPS storage, the physical disk size increases, but Windows needs to be told to use the new space.
Step-by-step Windows Extension:
- Connect to your Windows server via RDP.
- Press
Win + R, typediskmgmt.msc, and press Enter to open Disk Management. - You will see your `C:` drive, followed by a section of black Unallocated Space.
- Right-click your `C:` drive and select Extend Volume...
- The Extend Volume Wizard will appear. Click Next, leave the maximum space selected, and click Finish.
- Your `C:` drive will immediately expand. No reboot is required.
