Okay, so I'm going to pin this post with some info and tags, just kind of hoping someone will help me out.

About 2 weeks ago, my uncle passed away, and in his will, he left me his old "work computer"- a Lenovo T440 that runs on Windows 8.

In quotations because he never did much with his computer after he left the company he was apart of, or so I was told. I never really spent a lot of time with my uncle, mainly because he lived more than several hours away from my family, and he was a bit of a shut in after losing his job.

From what I do know, he and a handful of others in his circle joined an up and coming video game studio that has long since disbanded. They were still in the middle of working on their first game when the Founder/CEO pulled the plug on everything, dissolved the company, let everyone go.

No one was given a reason, apparently, just given hefty severance checks and told to leave.

Anything else anyone in my family might have learned died with my uncle, and my uncle didn't keep up contact with his old programming circle.

Anyways- my issue is this. I booted up the PC, everything runs how it is supposed to for Win8, I checked the disk space and it's almost full. So, wanting to make space, I start looking for things to delete, but there aren't any except for one application, which I assume is a copy of the game my uncle was working on. I go to the trashbin and see if there's anything I can delete in there- it's empty. I tried to open the application, and I get an error stating "There is not enough space available to run the application."

What am I supposed to do here? I mean, are there any options besides a factory reset? I kinda don't want to factory reset it, because I don't want to erase the game my uncle was working on, but I could maybe move it onto a flash drive and then factory reset the laptop?

I have decided I will keep blaming Jonah Magnus for the Everything.

I don't think whatever remnants of Jon there still are is Error/Archivist, but it's a fun concept all the same.
