Removed snapshot, how to remove the -00001.vmdk file?

Hello everyone,

 

I have a VM in VMWare server which I used to have a snapshot on. I have since deleted the snapshot, but I see that it left behind a file 120gb-000001.vmdk, which i assume was the data written to the original vmdk (120gb.vmdk) when the snapshot was still around. The virtual disk is a 120GB flat file... this 120gb-000001.vmdkfile is an extra 64 GB... is there any way I can delete that? I am afraid to do so now because lsof tells me it's in use, but it hasn't been modified in months...
