Chromebook: Free up storage space

Chromebook: Free up storage space

  • Free up storage space

If your Chromebook is slow or running out of disk space, try the following fixes to free up space:
  1. Delete files you don’t need from your Chromebook. Remember that you can move files to Google Drive if you want more space.
  2. Clear your browsing data and download history.
  3. Uninstall apps you’re not using. Remember, you can always download the app again later.
  1. Remove any extra user accounts from your Chromebook. Don't worry; the actual Google Account or any information connected to it, like bookmarks, won't be deleted. Only files that are stored on your Chromebook will be deleted.

If your Chromebook runs low on space, it might automatically delete your downloaded files, browsing data, cache, or unused accounts.
