I got my laptop a little over a year ago and it had 1tb of storage but nowadays, i only have like 10-15 steam games and sims, minecraft and roblox as the only games i play on there. GTA 5 is the game that takes up the most space. My laptop currently has 80gb of storage left. Im not sure where all the storage went or what i can do but one day i went on there and i was down 20gb without even installing anything new. I have done several malware checks and nothing. Im thinking about taking it to best buy to get more storage but where did all my storage go?

    Use a tool like TreeSize Free (no need for pro) and it will show you what is using the storage - which folders contain the files that use it.

    Do not delete things directly but use uninstall option in settings/control panel to remove any apps/games you think you don’t need any more and is using the storage.

    This is a general advice and without knowing how big you drive is to begin with, what you have installed, how do you use your laptop, etc. it’s the best you can get :-)
