Disk Usage is in indicator of the Demand on disk resources -- not of how much SPACE has been used.

 

You can see the free space by launching the Disk Management tool, which you do by entering Create and Format  into the search area and selecting the app.

Thanks for trying to help 😊  I am on the disk management tool but don't really have any idea what to do on there! Are you able to help further?

 

Thanks!

The Disk Management tool lists the drive on your PC and shows the Capacity, Free Space, and % Free for each drive.

 

That will tell you if any drive is completely full.
