I just reset my pc, and was astonished to see that the hard drive was being invariably despite of no apps being installed. 404 GB free of 930 GB. I am absolutely clueless as to what is causing this. And to add to this, I have individually checked the sizes of the folders in OS(C) And was shocked to see that the sizes sum up to hardly 100 GB. Hidden folders? No idea
Any leads/ hints would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance
