I have a client that is running Version euphrates-5.5.9.5-stable LTS - Starter License

They have cleaned up some disk space inside of a windows guest vm.  They would like to reclaim that storage space from the virtual disk. Shrink it from a 3Tb to a 2Tb virtual disk.  Is there a way to do this?

Thanks
