Part 2/6:
Before diving into deletions, the first step to freeing up space is identifying what’s taking the majority of your storage. On the Google Drive interface, navigate to the storage option on the left side of the screen. Here, you’ll see a list of your files organized from largest to smallest. This makes it easier to pinpoint the culprits—large files like high-resolution videos, outdated backups, or less critical documents that may be bloating your storage. Assess what you truly need to keep and what can be safely deleted or moved.
Transfer Important Files
If you're unsure about what to delete, consider transferring essential files to an alternative cloud storage service or an external hard drive. This way, you won’t risk losing anything important while still making space on Google Drive.
