I have a dual drive Dell, SSD for C:/ and a regular HD for D:/. The D shows 482 free of 931 GB. The SSD shows 1.5GB free of 102 GB. It's full. I store everything I can and remember to send to the D drive. I have no idea why a printout of System32 might be 6 feet long — there's that much stuff. And there seems to be a lot of files created on some day in '22 that I have no idea about. Like a file for Windows NT.

And like a 1000 files that look like this in something called "TableTextSurviceArray"

"AAJK"="次"
"AAJM"="資"
"AAJN"="恣"
"AAJV"="栥"
"AAJV"="秶"
"AAJV"="楶"
"AAJW"="姿"
"AAJX"="餈"
"AAJ;"="咨"
"AAJ,"="粢"

and that crap is everywhere.

What is the basic remedy?

Edit, somewhat solved removing back up files that should be on an external drive.
