Choose the drive you have installed windows on, press the “clean up system files” option, and tap on OK. The disk cleanup should reduce the disk space being used.
Disable Updates or Waasmedic.exe
Waasmedic helps in updating programs, if you stopped the updates for some time it won’t be functioning that much and that will automatically reduce the disk space used. At the start, the menu goes to settings and then goes to Update and Security. At the bottom of the panel on your right, you will see the Advanced options tab. Here you can stop the updates for some time (35 days at max). You can also disable Waasmedic itself but that is not recommended as it is a very important program for your system.
