    Why can't I factory reset my laptop cause of low disk space?


    I just spent a couple hundred dollars on this brand-new laptop, and within the first few weeks I was already running into space issues. I only have 57gb worth of space, and somehow the few files I have take up ALL of it. I looked into it, and apparently this is a common problem with this device. I mean, if they know this, why isn't it fixed before it's sold? / Why are they still selling it? Really seeming like they don't care about quality at all, as long as they get paid.Anyway, the only solution I'm finding is to do some confusing stuff with a USB and clean install and blah blah blah.I'm not

    Low Disk space and no storage

    Hi Katie,

    There are times when your Windows PC will let you know that it's low on disk space to prevent information loss. When your PC doesn't have enough disk space, it will affect the performance of your PC. Please answer these questions so we can isolate the cause
    of your concern:

    • What troubleshooting steps have you done so far?
    • How much disk space is available at this time? Can you provide me a screenshot of the current disk space?
    • What is the current OS Build of your PC? Click the Start button, then type
      winver, and then press Enter to verify this information.

    You can also visit this
    article     on how to free up more drive space to improve the performance of your computer.

    We're looking forward to your reply.
