Tech issue with java and os

Hello,

I am new to developing, I bought a book to help me learn, after downloading a few programs my computer has been near unusable. I can no longer launch steam or other applications, the computer freezes.

I downloaded virtualbox, a java sdk and various files, the android developer studio, android files.

Last night I was using android studio designing an app and it worked fine. I started getting a lot of lag when i closed all of the programs. I think there may be something with the virtual machine taking up soo much ram but I have no clue what is wrong with my computer. I realize I may hve made a mistake by not using a flash drive for all of the programming and developing files..

I would like to get my computer back to running smoothly, I am not sure what the problem is. Please help. Tips about where to put these developer files would be appreciated.
 
is vm launched during startup and using ram? have you tried to change how much ram vm takes?
 
How do I adjust how much ram it is occupying? I deleted all of the files. there is about 8 gbs of other files I am trying to manually delete but, it is not clearing when I try to clean the PC, also did a factory restart. A few times..
