    Welcome
    Lets not do this piecemeal. Download ccleaner and you will remove all the crap at once. The first c actually stands for crap.

    I would, also, invest in a chep external hard drive and put all excess files etc. there.
    You can, also, use ccleaner to remove all but the most current system restore point and save a lot of space.
    Before removing System Restore points, be sure you are satisfied the way your computer works.

    i freed up 15 GB of space.
    13 from restore points,
    and 2 from disk cleanup.

    Enough for now?
    Here are some additional ideas, which I have not tried, approve, or disapprove.
