Would this help clear the “other files” storage that takes up half of my storage on my phone ?

@LoggedOn042322  yes it should help. other files storage includes data from Apps,system files,cached Data and Temporary files. wiping the cache partition will clear some of it.  Ensure that anything in the Recycle Bin is permanently deleted if not needed. A good idea to also Run the Galaxy Apps Booster available from the Good Guardians suite .

some information on the other storage in this thread https://eu.community.samsung.com/t5/galaxy-s22-series/quot-other-quot-folder-taking-up-80gb-of-space...

you can connect to another mobile,Tv  or Games console USB as well as computer.   is none of this possible? can you confirm which Device you have?  There   may be some lower end A devices where it can some straight form the mobile but not possible on  any S ?note/Fold Devices for some time.  It is though change was made to stop customers inadvertently entering Recovery Mode.
