    Disk Cleanup/Storage Sense problem


    Hello.

    Recently, I had problems with Storage Sense/Disk Cleanup.

    I tried to clean around 1.69GB of space by using Disk Cleanup. However, it didn't delete anything. It just skips all of them and didn't delete them.

    Then I tried to use Storage Sense i think both of them are the same and got the same result.

    You can see my situation in the GIF below sorry the GIF is in Vietnamese:

    I tried sfc /scannow, DISM /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth and even /startcomponentcleanup and all of them didn't work.

    Any help with this situation would be appreciated.

    Thanks.

    :)

    Disk Cleanup/Storage Sense problem

    Disk Cleanup - downloads folder

    Storage Sense is no better. It also has Downloads listed, same as Disk Cleanup.
