What exactly are 'other' files here ? I just started using this tablet 5 days ago, and barely have any apps installed. 

Any app size is not that high and I can't seem to be able to clear that 26.21GB, even though it is not system data. This tablet has only 64GB of internal storage, so this is particularly concerning. 

I use my phone, Samsung F62 extensively and still there is very nominal storage occupied by the 'other' data on it. Please shed light if anyone has any idea.



Edit 9th Feb: Just received a software update this morning and my issue has been fixed as of now.

Thank you for your answer. But it didn't work, there are only around 10MB of temp files.

There are lot not easy to find
I'm developer so I go into system files and delete unnecessary ones
*.tmp
Any video like (dot).file_name.mp4 is just to delete its a file created by crash
Any image like (dotl.file_name.jpg is to delete its temporary one
You saw in my post I cleared 2GB+ to just 660mb
