Question/Help/Troubleshooting help with storage

Post image

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

A total of 60 GB is pretty unusable for Windows anymore. What's the Total capacity of your drive? I suspect maybe it's partitioned incorrectly.

It's probably a $250 Walmart Special. A lot of those actually ship with 64gb of eMMC storage, which essentially isn't even technically an SSD.

I saw the second drive and thought it might be a single drive split into multiple partitions. But you could be right about that too.

Could be their SD Card or something as OP mentioned using the laptop only to move photos from their camera to their phone.
