last week i thought my laptops storage was filed thats why i reseted my laptop. and the first thing i downloaded was minecraft. but like after 5 days the storage filled so i started to find where the gb's was coming from and i found out that ".minecraft" file was 150 gb.. is this normal?
There is no such thing as a ".minecraft file" but there is a ".minecraft folder", which contains many separate files inside - which file is talking up so much space? Check each folder individually if you don't see anything amiss in the root of the folder (just check their properties until you find one that is anomalously large, the largest folders will normally be assets, libraries, and saves, with the latter varying the most depending on how you play in your worlds). The only explanations I can think of is that you've done some really serious exploration and one of your worlds is taking up that much space but even that seems improbable to reach within days. Either that, or something is writing immense amounts of data to a log (I've heard of log files reaching gigabytes due to the game continuously outputting some error, if not to the extent you've reported, maybe over many days and/or you've spent a lot of time playing). Are you using mods? I know they love to write huge amounts of stuff to the logs (like a megabyte on each launch, but normally not a huge amount during normal gameplay, well, I don't really know since I don't play with "normal" mods or modern versions, my game logs are very small, only 400 KB total from over 4 months of daily playing).

TheMasterCaver's First World - possibly the most caved-out world in Minecraft history - includes world download.
TheMasterCaver's World - my own version of Minecraft largely based on my views of how the game should have evolved since 1.6.4.
Why do I still play in 1.6.4?
