Use something like HDGraph to find where all of the space is being used.

Did you check appdata? A lot of stuff gets saved in there.

Use a disk space tool. 

 

WinDirStat, Spacesniffer, TreeSize Free just to name a few. Make sure to run them as administrator or they might miss files. 

 

You can also clean system files by running disk cleanup (Run > cleanmgr.msc)

Double click on a folder in HDGraph to dig deeper. It should show you which subdirectories are using the most space.

 

~edit: Make sure to enable "Show hidden files" in Windows Explorer, probably you find less stuff because those files are hidden.

i just checked in the graph it's showing local is 13gb and roaming is 6 gb probably makes sense
