Simple way to clear more free space for new games?

 I can't install the GTA game as I do not gave enough storage.  I don't know how the hell my installed apps have 137 gb of data. If you look at the next slide, the biggest size app is of 1 GB and even all the other apps combined cannot be more than 6 gb, so where is this 137 gb of said data.

    Run the built-in disk cleanup utility and you are able to delete the old system instances, cache and tmp files.

    Some apps (like browsers, games, or system backups) may generate significant cache or temporary data without you realizing.

    Use the game launcher (Steam, Epic, Rockstar) to verify or clear cache. You might also check for local cloud saves or game installation files that can be moved or deleted.
