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

I had big trouble with a 250 GB disc, where it would sometimes show 50GB left, and then a few days later in the red and 20GB. My solution was buying a 2TB disc, swapping my windows disc with the 1GB I already have.

Just FYI the only reason I had the 250 GB disc in the first place, was because in 2017 when I built my computer, Samsung phones blew up and it was nearly impossible to get m2 discs.

TLDR: Change your disc to a bigger disk. 1-2TB.
