So yea all of a sudden my C drive says its full but i know i had 100+ gigs of free space, and I found out that its saying i have over 100 gigs of temp files but when ever i go to clear them it only finds a few megabytes. Ive tried restarting my computer, ive tried pretty much everything at this point.
 
It's not apparent from your post what you tried to clean out the temp files. What I do is open File Explorer, then right-click the C: drive and click Properties. Then click the Disk Cleanup button. Temp files are not just in one place, so my guess is that you've got a lot of temp files in places you haven't looked in.
