I still can't delete the data contained in "volume system information". There are about 4.4GB. What do you advise me to do?
With treesize I have also seen a game that has been updated in these but remains the old version of another 3.2GB.
This problem also gave me on windows 10 and I had made a script on purpose, to delete orphan programs. Do you have any idea what could have happened? How to clean up WindowsApps folder? - Windows 10 Help Forums

The System Volume Information folder contains files for system restore.. If necessary, you can reduce the space used. Or disable system protection. When the data is deleted.
I have freed up a lot of space. about 45GB free now
Now everything looks ok except a couple of issues that I have opened a thread about. But I wanted to clarify for the additional 8GB memory, I would like to be able to use it if possible.
If you want to try RAM modules that are not on the Qualified Vendor List (QVL) then allow several weeks of computer stability (the longer the better).
With a confirmed stable computer environment with various stressors (game playing, etc.) the RAM can be added knowing that any new instability is likely related to the newly added RAM module.
If there is no computer instability (BSOD or unexpected shutdowns and restarts) then the RAM can be used.
If you want to shop for new RAM then the Crucial scanner is a quick method.
Consider RAM manufacturer's that have lifetime warranties and those that guarantee compatibility.
Newer driver, possibly installed through windows Update. This happened to me once. I removed the driver and reinstalled the driver downloaded from AMD.

In the DDU instructions, it said "You MUST disconnect your internet or completely block Windows Update when running DDU until you have re-installed your new drivers."
Also per the instructions, you must check the box to remove all the old software associated with your GPU driver. In your case, Radeon.
