storage room drops like seconds

[HardStroke]

i have 240 GB ssd and i have my win10 installed there

every now and then my storage just drops by it self

like seconds

for example:

100 MB free - after 2 seconds 98 MB free - 96 MB free and it just keeps going

what the hell is this?

It's likely temporary files that are being generated or downloaded.

You can use the Disk Cleanup tool by right clicking on the partition -> Properties -> Disk Cleanup

No. They're actually needed, temporarily anyway. Some programs aren't good at cleaning up after themselves though.

I mentioned it before, right click on the drive/partition in File Explorer, select Properties, then click on the "Disk Cleanup" button

That's normally allocated in gigabyte chunks.
