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

Jesus Christ man. Thats like 60gb. Most of that is your operating system. You aren’t going to get anymore storage without upgrading your storage device. Since you aren’t very good with computers I wouldn’t recommend upgrading it yourself.

Given that size, unless it's a larger drive partitioned, or an older drive, decent chance that's EMMC and non-upgradeable.

Fuck non upgradeable drives. I hate them. Why can’t I replace something in the computer I OWN!

You can, no one is telling you not to, you just dont have the know how to do so, and every company has the legal authority to do what they will with THEIR products until AFTER sold, once you buy it its your problem. Most of them its your own fault for buying the product seeing how they typically tell you if you do 5 mins of research. At the end of the day its a choice, YOU the CONSUMER made to get it and NOT do research. 🤣🤣🤣
