Uninstall Windows XP under VMware Workstation

I just installed Windows XP and ran it under VM Workstation.  I no longer need Windows XP.  How do I remove it from VM Workstation?

Thanks.

Power it off.

Right click remove it from Workstation. Go to My documents and you will find a folder called virtual machines. open it and find the folder of this machine and delete the folder.

Be careful because once you do this you will all the data that is inside this VM. Delete it only if you do not have any use of it. And take down the exact name and delete that particular folder.

Power off the Virtual Machine then select the Virtual Machine and select VM > Manage > Delete from Disk.
