Can't resize Xubuntu partition using Virtual Box / Gparted












0















I had created a virtual machine Xubuntu 18.04.1, using Virtual Box 6.0 (on Windows 10 x64), initially with 10 Gb of space.



I needed to resize it to 20 Gb through the Windows command:



.VBoxManage modifyhd "C:UsersuserVirtualBox VMsxubuntuxubuntu.vdi" --resize 20000



Virtual Box is showing the correct space:

But when using Gparted, it's not recognizing the unallocated space:



enter image description here



What is wrong?
