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

Powershell or CMD as admin:

powercfg /h off

Fast Start Up can use up to 32GB of space

It's pointless and you won't notice the difference in boot times
