2. Under Storage, select This PC > Temporary files.
3. Under Temporary files, select Delete temporary files > Yes, I'm sure.

Delete downloaded files

Every time you download something from the web, a copy of the file is saved in
 your Downloads folder. To see what's inDownloads and remove what you don't need:

1. Open the Start menu and select Settings > System > Storage.
2. Under Storage, select This PC > Temporary files.
3. Under Downloads, select View downloads.

Empty your recycle bin

When you delete a file, it usually just goes to the recycle bin. To permanently delete the files in your
 recycle bin:

1. Open the Start menu and select Settings > System > Storage.
2. Under Storage, select This PC > Temporary files.
3. Under Recycle bin, select Empty recycle bin > Yes, I'm sure.

Uninstall apps you don't use anymore

1. Open the Start menu and select Settings > System > Apps & features.
2. Search for a specific app or sort them to see which ones are taking up the most space.
3. When you find an app you want to delete, select it from the list and select Uninstall.

Move files to another drive

If you have photos, music, or other files that you want to keep but don't use very
 often, consider saving them to removable media, like a USB drive.
You'll still be able to use them when the drive is connected, but they won't take up space on your PC.

1. Connect the removable media to your PC.
2. Open File Explorer from the taskbar and find the files you want to move.
3. Select the files, go to the Home tab, and then select Move to > Choose location.
4. Select your removable media from the location list, and then select Move.

Save new files to another drive

Instead of saving all your new files to the same drive, save some of them to a different drive.

1. Open the Start menu and select Settings > System > Storage.
2. Under Save locations, select a drive from the dropdown menu.
    If the drive you want to use isn't listed there, make sure it's connected to your PC.

Save fewer OneDrive files on your PC

It's handy to have your OneDrive files saved offline so you can use them when you're
not connected to the Internet. But if you're running low on drive space, try saving fewer
OneDrive folders offline.
You'll still be able to get to them fromOneDrive.com, but they won't take up space on your PC.

1. Go to the right side of the taskbar and find the OneDrive icon. If you don't see it,
   select the Show hidden icons arrow and see if it's there.
2. Right-click the OneDrive icon and select Settings > Choose folders > Choose folders.
3. Clear the checkboxes for folders you don't want saved on your PC, and then select OK.
