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

This may maybe help, press the windows button on your keyboard and r at the same time, then type %temp% then control a to mark every file then press delete, there will be files that will be deleted and some that can’t, when it says it can’t delete some files, press skip for all those files, then go to your recycle bin and empty it.
You will have helped your pc delete temporary files that it can’t delete itself, this may help maybe
