Answer 1

Good Day Default_320,

My name is Carlo, I am also using Windows 11 pc and community member like you. Let us work together to sort this out.

Here's the steps you can try, perform Disk Cleanup

• Press Windows + E keys to open File Explorer, right click C: drive and select Properties.

-Click Disk Cleanup button in pop-up dialog box.

-Click the check boxes in front of the files that you want to delete.

• Confirm the deletion in next window, done.

Restart once done.

You can use the tool called Treesize to check what are the apps or files taking most of your storage space.

Here's the link to download.

Once downloaded and installed, open the app and identify what are the apps or files taking most of your storage space.

Check the things you don't need, right click on it and hit "Delete" to free up space.

Once done restart your computer and check.

I hope the information above helps. Please let me know how it goes.

Have a wonderful day ahead and stay safe.

Sincerely,

Carlo T.
