What is burning through my diskspace on Windows 10 - Updates are off and not synching with Office 365 - losing 5 GB per day

How would I determine the processes that are using 5GB per day when my Windows 10 laptop is offline?

In looking at local storage, "Other People" is conspicuous. I am the only user on this machine and "Other People" is using 8 GB of disk space.

Questions:

  1. How would I identify the processes that are burning through my diskspace (even when I am disconnected) at a rate of 5 GB per day?
  2. What and who are "Other People" and why do they need so much space?
  3. Disk cleanup does not free anything (even when run as Administrator).
  4. The Remove options under System | Settings | Storage also do not remove or recover any space what-so-ever.
