I uninstalled the Riot Client from my computer, which was supposed to clear up 47.5 GB of space on my SSD. However, after I completed the uninstallation, I noticed that my available storage didn't increase at all. It seems like the space is still occupied as if nothing was removed. I'm wondering if this is a glitch with the Riot Client itself or if it's an issue with Windows 10. Is there any way to recover that space without having to reset my entire PC?

Another option is to run a tool like Directory Report. It will show you exactly how much space each folder is using. This might help you pinpoint where that missing storage is going! Just make sure not to mess with system-critical files.
Have you tried using a tool like WizTree? It’s great for giving you a visual overview of what's taking up space on your SSD. It can really help track down any leftover files that need to be cleared out. Just be cautious about what you delete, especially system files that could mess things up if removed.
It sounds like the information you're relying on for the Riot Client size might be off. Sometimes Windows doesn't accurately reflect uninstalled app sizes. It's also possible that while you uninstalled the client, the actual game files (like League of Legends, right?) are still on your drive. You might check if they're still installed and need to be removed separately. Maybe try looking in 'Programs and Features' to see if anything is still there.
