Constant low disk warning

I'm trying to fix my mother-in-laws computer for the umpteenth time....over the years she has allowed the grandkids to do what they would and many others. I have tried to clean the computer as best as I can, while trying to keep it working for her....

 

The major problem is this stupid warning I can't seem to get rid of. Every time someone saves or downloads anything it comes up with a low disk space error. The problem being that for some reason everything that is save is somehow being saved to the D:recovery image drive. I have tried and changed setting, and I've made countless "Download" folders in the C: drive and changed setting to save there, and still having the same issue...I've downloaded the system information file, but the only way I can post it is by attachment because it states that the file is too long.....

At this point I'm just trying to get it to work long enough for a couple months until she hopefully gets the upgrade she so desperately needs

 

 

 

If anyone has any suggestions I would be forever grateful

Thank you in advance

Open Disk Management. Remove the drive letter from the D: drive/partition. Then there will be no way anything can be saved there.
