Disks full virtual machine cannot be accessed - What now?

I had a fairly full datastore and decided to free up space. Went to Smapshot manager deleted all smapshots, big mistake,

 

I should have read Fillips post

 

" When initiating Delete or DeleteAll snapshots, the snapshot details are deleted from Snapshot Manager, then the snapshot files are consolidated and merged to another snapshot file or to the virtual machine parent disk. If the consolidation fails, there were no snapshots shown in the Snapshot Manager, but the snapshot files were still being used on the datastore. This can cause the datastore to run out of space."


Now I have a Full disk and no access to the VM.


What is my best next move?
