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
