Windows 10 Home 1903 My (M.2 NVMe SSD) reports 21.7GB used, yet files show only 11.9GB. No operating system is installed. This discrepancy was confirmed using Window Directory Statistics (WinDirStat), which displays 11.8GB of space consumed by files. Where can you find this extra data? $RECYCLE.BIN is 129 bytes; Recovery is 0 bytes, Temp is 0 bytes.
