Suggested new feature or improvement

The VM gallery Json received here: https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=851584 should contain accurate disk space requirements for each vhdx file within the zip files.

Scenario

Dev Home's Hyper-V extension will be able to accurately retrieve this information so it can provide users with the disk space requirement in its Creation flow. E.g the extension will show the user that they don't have enough space to create the VM before allowing the user to create it.

Without this we have to hard code the sizes instead of simply retrieving them from the gallery Json. So, our workaround until this is updated is to hardcode the size. This hardcoded value would be based on the size of the zip file after manually extracting it.
