The VM and Disk were created under the Azure account and all is working fine. I tried to match the size I see in the VM with the size I see in the Azure Portal, and I cannot reconcile the numbers.
On the Azure Portal, Disks Resources, I see the size as 1024 GiB and when I log on to the VM using Remote Desktop I see the size as 126 GB (from File Explorer/This PC).
Am I missing something? There is a big difference between 126 and 1024. Can someone explain this?

Hi @TarekAHF ,
if the "physically size" of the disk (1024 GB) differs from the partition size (126 GB) please take a look in the Disk Management of the VM.
It might be there is "unused/unallocated" disk space on the volume.
