I created a virtual machine with VirtualBox and it was not working, so I removed the thing... Unfortunately, I did not receive the gigabytes I put into the "hard drive" of the VM back. I am stuck at about 5 GB and it is NOT resetting. Anything I can do to get the space back?

P.S. I even uninstalled VirtualBox after finding this problem. Nothing. :(

did you right click the virtual machine from inside virtualbox and click remove then remove all files
if not then the vdi's were left behind, use some kind of search utility to find them and delete them

those are the virtual disks you created, even if you uninstall they still stay there in case you want to reinstall i think

VMware may not be free (Even though I get it for free without pirating :D)

It is better than VirtualBox
