Looks like you have lots of space, and it looks like the warning is about the recovery partition
you can ignore the warning, windows 10 is a pain picking up on that. I have seen somewhere you can stop that will look around for where I saw it



EDITED: http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/forum/id-3251874/turn-low-disk-space-warning-recovery-drive.html but this also turns off low-space warnings on all drives ....
this involves registry changes I would just leave well alone and ignore the pita messages

Another possible solution here from DavidO https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_10-other_settings/d-drive-low-disk-space-notification/1225230e-7182-4dd5-9ba8-0fd0cb6584af

No idea again I'm afraid, how would I find out?

Open the Windows file browser. Click on my This PC. All drives are listed there. What does it say?

It'll say pretty much what OP posted almost 12 hours prior to your post.

Does Windows report based on actual disk space remaining, or percentage remaining? Percentage-wise the recovery partition has ~46% free.

This link suggests you should be able to remove the drive letter for the recovery partition - that should stop the low disk space warnings.

It shows remaining and total

And it has no drive letter
