"Other User" is taking my storage

I currently have this "other users" taking up 57% of my Mac's storage. What is it? There is no other user on this machine than myself, no other profiles, its less than 3 months old! How do I clear this out?

Storage used up by "other users" Does anyone have experience regarding a large lump of storage being used up by "other users"? I just recently noticed that around 66 GB of my storage was used by "other users", as shown in the screenshot. I have had my Mac for almost 2 years now, and suddenly this has happened. I am the type of person to regularly check up on my available storage etc. so i know this has happened within the last 2 months or so.

Storage space and Other Users I just checked the available space on my Mac. I see that “Other Users” are taking up 159G of space. There are no other users on this Mac. Only me. Can I delete this somehow? If so, how do I do it? Will it impact my use of the computer if I do? Thanks. .....Mike.....
