    I'm using Windows 10 on a fairly new Asus G14 Zephyrus. The Laptop runs fine but, when i went to check storage I realized that my 2TB ssd was 3/4 used and 993GB was System and reserved. I clicked on it and saw that system was taking up 905GB...That can't be right. What are your throught on this and how should i go about it? It seems extremely excessive.

    :)
