Reclaiming disk space from AppVM's

[shimmy_jimmy]

Hi,
I deleted around 14 gigs from my AppVM qube but “Total disk usage” software from system tray shows me that it has only 1 gb less.
Maybe someone has an idea how to reclaim that space because now I see no reason in deleting anything if I cannot free disk space I delete.

[solved] When is Disk Space Returned to the Thin Pool after Deleting Data in an AppVM?

Qubes OS is keeping a revisions of your qubes volumes so the revision with a lot of data that you’ve removed still exists in one of the revisions: You need to restart the qube a few times for the old revision to be discarded. Or you can try to change revisions_to_keep to 0: qvm-volume config vmname:private revisions_to_keep 0 Maybe it’ll remove your old revisions after you shutdown the qube.

Thank you. Can I see somehow which AppVMs are still keeping my “revisions” now?

All of your VMs are keeping 1 revision by default.
