i would try disabling/turning off all swap files, save settings and then restart the computer.
you can then check disk space used and free.

at this point it would be worth while defragging/trimming the drive.

then on C: drive set up the swap file again as > minimum 1024 .. maximum 1024 <
save settings and restart then check used and free space again.

best of luck, Steve ..

For several older versions of Windows the Swapfile/Paging file/Virtual Memory was recommended in Help to be 2.5 times the physical RAM then the last 2 or 3 versions it dropped to 1.5 times the RAM. Large spreadsheets, video editing, etc., could use more. For most consumers the default setting works fine.

One thing I pay attention to is having at least 20% free space on the drive. To help in accomplishing that I store most of my data, downloads, etc., on a 4TB NAS drive, 2 x 4TB drives set as RAID 1 for total 4TB capacity.
That 1.5x rule of thumb is at least a decade old and only really (to a degree) applied if your RAM was low e.g. 4GB RAM

In general better to let Windows decide.

If one has a large existing pagefile, set it say to 5GB, reboot the set it to auto. Large pagefile will be gone.

i myself use a page file of 1024/1024 and have this page file set and locked at these settings
but the page file is in RamDrive not on my M2 SSD and i only have it as legacy if some programs look for a page file.

but your space/storage problem seems to be sorted.
best of luck, Steve ..
