Inspiron 7778 SSD almost full !

Less than 2 Go are free

Windirstat says I have "unknown" 28 Go, and Recovery>Customizatins>Apps.ppkg 3.4 Go

I used many cleaning tips to free space, but I don't know what to do now... some help ?

How big is your SSD?  Dell normally ships SSDs around 256GB to 512GB in size if they are a Primary HDD replacement.

SSD is 128 Go and HD 1To

I uninstalled Dell Backup and Recovery and now I get 45Go free space

and no "unknows" files remaining in WinDirStat

Do you think that 128 Go is too short ?

It depends on what your putting on it.  The 128GB drive is for small programs and the operating system.  The 1 TB drive is for your larger programs and photos/videos etc.  If you have a ton of games or movies, you will want to install them on the larger drive.  It also looks like you had Dell's Backup and Recovery set up to backup your computer to the SSD. I'd change that to the HDD.
