    Reclaim storage space


    I have deleted old unnecessary admin user profiles from the windows 10 installation but their user files are not getting deleted from the windows drive. I am also unable to reset the pc. The old files amount to 400 gb on a 500 gb drive. I also suspect though my cloud back ups are complete local onedrive file stamps are making it impossible to reclaim space

    :)
