How to Quickly Find and Delete Large Files on Windows 11/10

Running out of disk space is a common problem for Windows users, especially on systems with smaller SSDs. While temporary files and cache can take up space, large files are often the biggest storage hogs. Old videos, installers, backups, and forgotten downloads can quietly consume tens of gigabytes. Deleting large files is one of the fastest and most effective ways to free up space on a Windows PC.
