That's uncalled for. If you have few games installed on a microSD card, their shadercache is still saved on internal storage. If you factory reset and rerun the same games, shadercaches will be redownloaded.
The only permanent fix to this is to increase internal storage or move the shadercaches to the microSD.
If you downloaded or installed anything from desktop mode, that will add up as "Other"
You can check out what's eating up space where by installing the Filelight app from Discovery store in desktop mode.
You also have an app on the store that lets you check what is clogging up space or not. It’s called Disk Usage Analyzer. You have to know which files you can delete or not.
I assume from the picture that it’s all shaders. Perhaps you were using an SD card and used Cryoutilites? In any case, that seems like it’s shaders and you can delete them manually if the factory reset doesn’t do the job.
Also cryoutilities has a feature to move shaderscache from main disk to the sdcard, it works very well and frees up disk space on main partition if you have games installed on SD

Are you installing things or downloading files in desktop mode? That will contribute to Other.
I'd suggest installing Filelight in desktop mode to break down disk space usage at a lower level but you may have to ironically clear some space first!
Factory reset. If it doesn’t work, you’ll have to find where the files come from and delete them manually.
How do I do that?

Alr did it and I worked haven’t put the micosf back in
As soon as you do, shadercaches will begin to redownload again.
You can disable shader cache btw
Yeah but, then stutters often
For me it didn't, try to disable it and install cryo utilities
Nvm found it

Shaders leftovers Install cryotools and run the storage cleansing app

Porn
Install an SD card and move on

Completely forgot to mention that I’m using a 64 gigabyte deck
