Hi,
What is the type if the VHDX file, fixed or dymanic?Is the expanding expected, such as there's more data store on the VHDX file, so the size is expanding?
If the expanding is expected, and you would like to reduce the size of the VHDX file to save some space, we may try to shrink and compact the VHDX.
Please refer to the following artcile about how to compact and shrink VHDX:
