    You have 13GB of Temp files (ie) hostdump etc.
    Download System Ninja Free, scan and remove everything it finds. this is the safest way to remove temp files.
    Or you can use Windows Storage Sense.

    Deleting junk files is only a temporary solution.

    So ... what is the cause of these dump files and how can that be stopped?
