Automatic Repair Loop: Need additional free space to reset PC

I have already read threads regarding the Automatic Repair loop and nothing has seemed to work. The only way to resolve this issue it seems is to reset my PC however when I try Windows
says "Additional free space is needed on the drive where Windows is installed. Clear some space and try again."

How can this be fixed? Thank you very much.

Reset: Additional free space is needed

Hi,

I need to reset an Omen laptop after my son took control of it. I have no password.

When trying to reset it (removing all files), I get the following error message:

"Additional free space is needed on the drive where Windows is installed. Clear some space and try again."

But I cannot clear space without losing in...

Thanks!
