Anonymous

Background Info:

The Windows 11 install was successful. Now I don't have as much free storage. I have already deleted the temp files on this path: (C:) > Users > me > AppData > Local > Temp

Question:

How do I delete the UNNECESSARY files Windows created during the upgrade to version 11?

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

    You can perform disk cleanup.

    -Click Start, type Disk Cleanup and open it.

    -Choose your C drive and hit Ok

    -Check the boxes and hit Ok to delete the temp files and previous Windows Installations.
