I’ve been having issues with my C drive constantly filling up, and I usually fix it by deleting some videos or using WinDirStat to see where the storage is being used. However, today I deleted about 25 GB, and within an hour, my storage was completely full again. It’s causing my Discord to crash when I try to mute. Has anyone experienced something similar or have any ideas on what might be causing this?

It sounds like your system might have a malware issue. I went through something similar on my Mac where a virus filled up my drive without warning. If you’re worried about your drive being faulty, maybe consider doing a full reset, but make sure you back up your important files first.
It could be related to system restore taking up too much space. You might want to check your system settings to see how much room it’s using. Also, don’t forget to take a look at error logs, as they can sometimes bloat your drive quickly.
First off, you should definitely check what’s consuming your space. Have you looked at the ‘System Temp’ folder? That’s usually a good place to start. Windows can sometimes fill it up with temporary files really quickly. Try clearing that out regularly.
You should check the health of your hard drive too. A failing drive can lead to strange storage issues. Use a tool like CrystalDiskInfo to check its status.
