storage

[aw333]

hello, my storage is full and i have cleared it out however my storage is 57.4 GB and i have used 56.8 GB. i have tried looking where all of this data is and i can’t find how it all adds up too that amount. i really want too lower my used GB but i just can’t get it lowered yet i have deleted a lot off stuff. this laptop is a couple months old so i’m just confused on how high it is. i do play sims 4 a lot so this may have a lot do with it but when i see how much GB it is in settings it is very low.

Welcome to the HP Community Forum.

True - The disk is not that large.

Windows does use a lot of space just for Windows stuff.

You might already be "lean and clean".

How and where is the disk space used?

I've used this software for years -- if you can get it in your region, it might be worth a look.

Select a starting folder and go from there.

Moving through the "tree" is similar to using File Explorer - Open each folder in line to see how the space you have is being used.

You can pretty much start where you want - select a folder to get started.
