Product: HP Stream Notebook

Lately my laptop has sporadically been informing me that I need to free up some space to download updates, new files, etc.  I look under Settings and programs and I am at bare bones.  I delete temporary files and any files I may not need any more.  I defrag and it still does no good.  Any suggestions?  Btw, I have no photos saved on my laptop.  Thanks.

Hi,

 

You are currently using a stream notebook which has a limitation regarding the storage space.  Please refer to this article regarding HP Stream https://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Software-and-How-To-Questions/Storage-space/td-p/5619043.
