HP 14-dq0000 Laptop PC (9WQ76AV)
Microsoft Windows 11

I have started experiencing constant notifications of low disk space. Even after freeing up space, for some reason my PC quickly fills up the allocated free space. I tried running Avira and after it cleared up space, it filled it up. Then I tried installing Malwarebytes, ran a scan, but it didn't resolve the problem neither. I did some research and discovered that OneDrive can fill up extra space, so I turned on Storage Sense, but the issue still remains. I am completely out of options and thinking about taking it to an authorized repair center. Any thoughts?

It is one of the following machines

it only has 64GB or 32GB  of eMMC storage .

 

Here are some things you can do to recover some of the disk space:

Also, the community Win10 Forums has the following suggestions:

In addition, I have found the utility Cleanmgr+ to have LOTS of options for removing Windows junk, including log files. I use it practically every day. You can get it from here:

Also, there is a freeware app known as Wise Disk Cleaner. I use it every day to get rid of junk files: https://www.wisecleaner.com/wise-disk-cleaner.html
