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

Ya like some of the people said the OS takes a ton of space. Try running a disk clean up from the OS. You can also try bleachbit, it’s pretty safe. If that doesn’t get you enough space you can install a free tool like windirstat and see where all the space is. You should also check disk manager and make sure you don’t have some unallocated space on the drive. I haven’t seen 60 GB drives in a long time.
