Product: HP Stream
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hello, for a while now I've been struggling to make more space on my computer. I don't have anything saved on it or any extra software installed, and I have several GBs of temporary files that I am unable to access or delete. I only had around 3 GB left - I have an HP Stream laptop. 

 

I looked around for what I could uninstall, and made a mistake by uninstalling the HP Privacy Settings. I don't know what this app does, but after uninstalling it, my available space went down from 3 GB to 1 GB. So now I have even less. 

 

I am wondering is there any way I could reverse this or get the app back? 

 

My second question is, I would really like to do a system restore and just get back to factory settings. But I need 4 GB for this which I don't have. Is there *anything* I could do? I don't have enough in my storage to update windows 10 or install Office, and it's really annoying. Thank you!
