I recently tried to get back into gaming with my laptop after two years of inactivity. My brother was playing Minecraft with a mod, and when I joined, the game crashed. I checked the storage, and it says my memory is full. I've deleted all my other games except Minecraft and Roblox, and I don't have any photos on it. I've also cleared my cache, but it still says I only have 277 MB left out of 237 GB. Can anyone help me figure out what's going on?

It sounds like clearing your cache might not have done enough. With that storage, you're really going to struggle to run modern Windows and any big games. One option is to wipe your hard drive and do a fresh install of Windows using a USB installer. That will give you a lot more space, although it will fill up again over time.
Have you tried running disk cleanup? It can help you clear out old files and updates that you might not need anymore. That could free up some space for you.
Ok, thank you! I'll give that a shot when I get back.
I'm not really tech-savvy, so could you explain how I would do a fresh install of Windows and wipe my drive? Any guidance would be appreciated!
