Simple solution that worked for me I had over 300gig in my other folder and no PS4 games installed at all Tried everything except the system restore and decided for old hard reset. And it worked Unplugged the ps5 from the wall counted to 10 and plugged it back in and it was back down to 15 gig
I tried all the other resolutions and got frustrated at it and just unplugged the ps5 from the wall while it was on... Turned it back on and it went through its process of rebooting and then the Other storage was back down to 15gig
Mine too just happened just bought a ps5 and transferred to ps4 and OTHER is almost all used so have no room to download anything and doesn't show anything downloading, so weird.
@@IsraelCAddd I just put all the ps4 games on the drive and the ps5 games go on the ps5 console, however I can't have it connected it gets too hot it's not an SSD drive so figured I'd just play my ps4 games on my ps4 and my ps5 games on my ps5. lolz
Dude I just transferred data from my ps4 and it’s 386GB 😭😭 I want just a select few games from my ps4. I bought a ps5 but I’m not allowed to play my ps4 games unless I want to sacrifice half the storage to the “other” file?? Wtf
Man! Try to hold your phone in horizontal mode and go a little far back. It feels like we are looking through a telescope. Dropping the 1st thumbs up anyways.
Sorry i know its not the best but the phone i had i couldn't go back far enough in my room to do that but i could have changed it to where it would have fixed that prob but it would have still turned out the same because it shrank the entire picture it may have been even worse because it wasn't a full pic and when i tried it in that way it would have been real hard to see so i would have had to get real close to the screen so it may have been worse i was just trying to make sure everyone could see and read everything i do have a different phone now idk how well it will work on that but maybe it's better just haven't tried yet and thank you for the like it means a lot to me hope you have a great and blessed night!
The only Solution is to reset your PS5, Nothing else will work. I had uninstalled all of my games and rebooted the system, it didn’t work. At last did reset and all space occupied by Other got cleaned up. Do backup your saved data before reset.
If i do this, will i lose every data on those game like the proccess and the thropies? Bcs it takes up 500+ gb of my storage but i would like to keep some of the proccess in couple of them😔
ohmy thanks!! got my ps5 recently did my backup all of it from my ps4 and left me with other being almost the half of all .. like 665gbs!!!! the reset worked!!!!
It won't delete your account exactly but if you factory reset the PS5 it will remove the account from that playstation so you will half to put it back on there but it doesn't perm delete your account or anything but you should prob check my updated video on this tho :) have a great and blessed day!
You half to initialize the ps5 it deletes everything now if you mean save data for games if u have ps plus save all the save data for your games to the cloud online then just download them back
They have it mostly fixed now but during the time this video was made it was not,it was messed up it is a little messed up still but mostly fixed for the most part tho!
That's actually really good if it's only using 9gb in the other folder but since this video they have updated the ps5 n mostly fixed this issue so when u delete certain things you'll notice it goes down or even up lol but usually not that far up tho by just a little bit but it's usually nothin bad tho lol
@@xxbiohatchetxxa funny thing happend tho …first time i got the ps5 brand new i installed demon souls and elden ring and i got 15 GB in other storage…after factory reset i reinstalled the same games nou other storage got 18 GB
That could have been caused by something else or the first time they where installed there could have been something like save data or this or that,that could have brought it down to 15 and then without whatever it was it could have caused it to go up a little bit even 18gb is still good tho

Do you mean in safe mode? Or just turn off and unplug?

just cancel the download and re try once u have freed up space............ i can confirm this just 100% worked for me
after I had factory reset now my other took up everything and I only have 83.92 gigs to use

You won't lose the trophies you earned
when i delete photos and videos, my "storage other" folder gets bigger
Sometimes it gets bigger sometimes it gets smaller when u delete save data,videos,photos it's weird

If I reset to factory will it delete my entire account?

Just unplug your power cord if it is acting up it will rebuild your console storage
