What can be useful in determining what is taking up space is to use a visualisation tool:

MAC: https://grandperspectiv.sourceforge.net/

 

P.S. Be careful of what you delete as you may break something... Best to make backups first, good luck!

I recommend replacing the hard drive with a larger one.

It's time to go through and clean up your disk. 2.22GB free is not sufficient for Photoshop Scratch and hardly enough to run the operating system

Go to Windows Settings - System Storage and clear out temporary files. If you use the same disk for document storage then it is time to add a second disk for that purpose, at the very least move historic documents onto a separate disk.
