100 Gb of System data, cannot delete

Alendi224

I am running out of space in my Pixel 7 and I do not know what is taking up so much space. I already cleaned the cache, checked that no apps occupy more than 1 Gb, removed everything unnecessary, but those 100 Gb are not going away.

I also checked with SD Maid, which says I have those 100 Gb, but does not say where. I found other similar posts in the forum, but no clear solution.

Alendi224 Tried a couple of reboots?

Alendi224 No other user profiles?

I once had an orphaned directory from a podcast downloader in Android taking up lots of GB.

Maybe try some other storage analyzer app?

Novalissoide Rebooting solved it! Now the size of temporary files makes more sense (4 Gb instead of 38 Gb). Thanks!

Do I have to mark the thread as "Solved"? (I do not know how to do it)

Alendi224 It probably will get picked up by a mod. You can alter the labels only briefly after creating the thread.
Nice that it worked! 🫡
