So i have an MSI GL62M 7RD laptop and ive disabled all the startup programs and removed the "recovery" which was 20gb, but still am low on space. Its a 250GB ssd and all my games in total are about 160GB, minus Windows which is like 35GB, which makes no sense in where all the other space is. I am unable to reset this PC as it isnt mine, but would love to remove all the bloat ware. Is there any programs i should uninstall? Ive gotten rid of Norton and Microsoft Office and some but I cant find any other

You remove hiberfil.sys by running command from elevated command prompt:
  • powercfg -h off
You set size of pagefile.sys at:
Control Panel/System/Advanced System Settings/Advanced/Performance/Settings/Advanced/Virtual Memory/Change/

You set space allocated for System Restore at:
Control Panel/System/Advanced System Settings/System Protection/

You should not manually delete any files. You can make your system unable to boot, if not careful.
