Hi,

My database shows the following statistics.

database_name   database_size   unallocated space
silverdb 155.20 MB 101.05 MB


The recovery model is Simple. Now I have tried numerous times to Right click database > Tasks > Shrink database. However the db does not shrink.

What do I do to reclaim this 101 MB space?

Thanks.

You can't shrink db to size smaller than initial ones. And I'll not fight for 100mb space.
