Stuck on installation manager 12/9/23

Hi all it appears that I’m stuck on the installation manager. I’ve removed some add-ons from the folder and yet it says I still don’t have enough space on disk. Is anybody else having this problem today?

CHECK AVAILABLE FREE SPACE

Make sure there is enough space to decompress the files. If you are downloading 15 GiB of data, you will need about 30 GiB of free space on the drive.

I remember reading somewhere, outside of MSFS, that you should not try to operate Windows with less than 20% drive space remaining.
I “lost” a complete drive when I didn’t notice it had become full - it was my backup drive. Couldn’t even get into it to delete anything unless I took it to a professional and the cost made it not worth it. At least now you get a warning.

Deleted at least 40 GB from the C drive but still getting the same results shown on the picture

I believe the size of the Standard Edition is about 160GB, so you will need a fair bit of space.
My Premium Deluxe with about a dozen addon aircraft takes about 360GB.
