@puzzlezaddict I have a lenovo do not sure if it's because of the make and model or if its just me being brainless but my windows seems to keep the previous data until I go and manually delete them. By the way my laptop has about 8 Microsoft Visual C+ + ( two are from 2010, 1 from 2012, 3 from 2013, and two from 2015-2022) do I need that many?
@ClandestineSims Yes, you need that many VC++ runtimes if they're installed. They only get installed when a program (a game like Sims 4, or sometimes another app that does graphics processing) requires them. The 2022 runtimes cover everything from 2015 to today, but not the older ones. Older apps that were built with previous versions need those versions, not the newer ones.
I would still like to know how much total storage your computer has and whether you can find any suspiciously large folders.
The total GB on my windows SSD C Drive I 117GB. I'm trying to find any large files like you suggested. I'll let you know about anything suspicious. I have managed to download the Sims 4 again but yeah it has already taken 30GB as I'm downloading all the DLCs to see exactly how much space it will take in total.
