Where does qemu-img store images and how can i delete them?
I remember making an image that I never used. I cannot uninstall qemu-img because I have one vm that is being used.

qemu-img stores images in current working directory by default. You can specify any target directory and file name.
So, try to remember the work directory location where you had created those images with qemu-img.
Other option is search probable locatios for the extension of image file you use e.g. search for *.vdi in your home directory etc.
Then you can easily manually delete them.
