I never felt such satisfaction of deleting it after when it all was freed up once again. I just want to thank you for being and helping my journey, eh you still got me even more space on it now! Big thank's! btw to the one's who didint understand I was just recording at high quality and I found out that warzone had nothing to do with it.

      Turn developer mode on in your settings and/or get a good pc if your pc is slow, cause maybe it cant "apply security" cause there are too many files in the folder for the pc to handle it correctly.
      Im just guessing btw, maybe none of these things have anything to do with your problem
