Recently we are starting getting this issue that we are not able to clear the volume shadow copies for D Drive on Windows server, it is 2019 OS.
I scanned through tree size i can only see one file in Volume shadow copy consuming 44.7 GB, and the capacity od D Drive is 50 GB. I also checked shadow copies setting and nothing configured there, everything is cleared from shadow copies, but this fill is not deleting, it seems some corrupted shadow copy file not cleared. Can any one help on this how to get rid of this 44.7 GB of file.
