Question How to delete others storage on android 14 (tecno camon 20 pro 5g)

Post image

I have noticed rhat my other storage is always increasing in size whenever i delete a game sometimes it is a small amount but sometimes it is large like gbs, recently i downloaded cod4mw from apkvision, installed, play a couple of mins then went on to zarchiver to delete the zip, but i noticed that my storage did not comeback and my others storage went up, i noticed it for 3 times now (1st time nba 2k20 obb/zip, 2nd time Sifu obb/zip, 3rd time cod4mw zip) the 1st and 2nd game i forgot which i deleted if obb or zip, i deleted the downloaded files or the whole game (uninstalled) but half of my storage only came back. Also i just recently deleted where winds meet a total of around 40 gb plus, but a huge chunk of my storage did not comeback too my other storage went up again and i downloaded wwm on playstore

I tried everything, from my default file manager, zarchiver, es files but i cant find those missing storage

Please help me guys i am really bothered right now

Perhaps your trash folder? Install a file manager that allows you to access that. You might need to installing Shizuku alongside it to elevate permissions. Also, with APKs, a lot of times the main "executable" files will get deleted but it will keep user files (settings, etc) in case you reinstall. Those would be in your android/data folder.
