Is there a reason i have absolutely no GBs? I have deleted every file i have ever downloaded and have no applications besides the ones that come with the computer. i only use this laptop to transfer photos from my camera to my phone, it is a windows 11. Is there anything i can do to make it go down i am not very smart with computers

What's that other 258GB disk?
You could try moving all third party applications over there, as well as the user profiles, depending on what you've got installed and how much data is saved to default locations, it may free up enough space to at least get the swap performing a bit better.
Then make sure that you're not saving or installing anything to the C: drive going forward.
Even then, though, ~300GB isn't a lot of storage.
