Reclaim WSL's unused virtual disk space

Compact a WSL distro's virtual disk to reclaim unused storage space.

WSL's virtual disk grows when needed but doesn't shrink by itself. Here is how to reclaim the unused space. This can sometimes free hundreds of GBs for use on Windows.

Trim the WSL partition

Gyarbij

CHANGE LEGEND: (you MUST replace these in the service file)

• USERNAME = your actual username e.g. gyarbij
• I recommend changing rclone.service to the name of eache drive if you have multiple mount points.
• If you already have rclone mounts check Step #2 then skip to Step #4 and place your mount point at #MOUNT

Steps for RClone systemd to autostart on boot

1. Install fusermount (if not already installed)

SVT-AV1 Encoding Guide

Open source encoders

• AOMEnc[^4]. Developed by AOM, reference encoder with most features and highest quality.
• SVT-AV1. Developed by Intel, production ready encoder with high performance and optimized for parallelism.
• Rav1e. Developed by Mozilla/Xiph, used by Vimeo[^1].

Since all these tools are stil being actively developed, you should always use the newest versions and compile the standalone encoders yourself if necessary.

You need spice-vdagent

Debian or Kali Linux installed to as KVM (libvirtd) guests do not automatically have qemu-guest-agent or spice-vdagent installed. This will prevent seamless movement of the mouse cursor between the guest and host desktop in Virtual Machine Manager (requiring the use of a Ctrl-Alt to release the cursor from the guest window).

To cure this, install both qemu-guest-agent and spice-vdagent on each guest and reboot (the guests).

$ sudo apt install qemu-guest-agent
$ sudo apt install spice-vdagent
