Rather than destroying the existing VM to expand the disk to allow for the installation, users can–with some manual effort–expand the existing disk image used with Windows 10 in a VM.

Without an ample amount of free space available when the update is started, updating to Windows will fail, often displaying error code 0x80070070.
Likewise, Linux users who utilized a Windows 10 license bundled with their laptop or desktop by installing Windows 10 in a virtual machine are also likely to be troubled by this update, unless they allocated a large amount of disk space on initial setup. This has caused significant pain for users of Windows 10 on low-end systems with a 32 or 64 GB eMMC SSD, as those systems may not be able to upgrade without installing a new SSD–if the system supports it. To install the upcoming Windows update, Windows requires 32 GB of free space, an increase from the (frankly, paltry) 16 GB needed for 32-bit versions and the 20 GB needed for the 64-bit versions.
