The drive has a 128GB storage with a few extra apps already installed. You can reset it to remove everything except essentials.

Use WinDirStat to identify which files are using the most space first.

It seems the beam drive mods were consuming most of the available space. Appreciate the update!

Avoid placing games on the C drive to prevent them from being corrupted during a reinstall. Move them elsewhere for safety.

If a user has an SSD as their boot drive, and that's all they can afford or desire to have, then the C drive is the only place to put it. If a game utilizes a lot of small files, an SSD will 100% trump a hard drive for launching and playing the game. If the concern is the game being nuked because of reinstalling Windows, a user can archive it onto other media in the event reinstallation is required.

My files are stored on different disks, and sometimes the mods end up in the $appdata$->local directory by accident. I just adjusted the settings recently.

When WinDirStat appears, I always reference WizTree. It's significantly quicker.
