How do I remove the snapshots on a hyper-v. Can not edit the disk because- Edit is not available because checkpoints exist for this virtual machine.

I was able to remove the snapshots so I the edit button is now available to compact the virtual hard disk.
Will the compact disk gain me hard drive space?
