Some space could be occupied by System Restore or Backup utility (it is your main drive).

There is nothing unusual about it. It is used by Windows and it is not missing.

There are hidden & system files & folders in the drive. You need to select them also in order to get the correct statistics.

their are hidden system files & folder
& also a lot of space is been occupied by System Restore

disable system restore, delete all temp file,
use "sfc /purgecache" command from command prompt
