Windows 10: Freeing up space on C Drive Windows 10

I have tried Ccleaner.

File scan.

Storage Sense.

Malware scan.

Virus scan.

Optimize c Drive.


None of it worked all that well.


I don't want to partition, etc. I am afraid I will mess it up.


There was a simple solution I saw a while ago, but I can't seem to find in on the forum.

It was a command. I only remember a q being in the string of letters.


Any help?

:)
