Hello!
I've had an Asus ZenPad 10 model P00C, running Android 7.0, for almost a year. For the past few months, it's been sluggish and buggy. I've noticed that the storage space reserved for the system is at its maximum (10.74GB). I reset it to factory settings twice, but nothing has changed; the storage space reserved for the system is still at max. As for the shared internal storage space, I'm at 4.71GB out of 53.26GB. I should mention that I'm not very tech-savvy.
Is it possible to free up memory for the system or expand this storage space?
Thank you very much for your responses :-)

Hello,
Since you have Android 7, format the µSD as internal storage.
The apps will directly copy to the card instead of the internal memory.
1. Insert the SD card into your Android phone and wait for it to be detected.
2. Now, open Settings.
3. Scroll down and go to the Storage section.
4. Tap on the name of your SD card.
5. Tap on the three vertical dots in the upper right corner of the screen.
6. Tap on Storage settings.
7. Tap on Format as internal storage.
8. On the next screen, you have one last chance to decide if you want to change your mind. Tap Erase and format if you want to format your SD card as internal storage.
9. You will be warned if Android finds your SD card to be slow. Tap OK to continue.
10. You can start the data migration process now or do it later.
11. Tap Done to finish the storage adoption process for your SD card.
Of course, the µSD must be Class 10 with very good speeds.

I didn't complete the procedure because I don't have the right micro SD card, but it'll work as soon as I get one. Thanks again!!! :D
