Read the release notes.

Also, if you have no option to free up space, yes, uninstall and reinstall.

The full game gets patched it should only download 10 gb patch but then patches the whole game so needs a lot of free disk space.

"Patch 7 is approximately 11.6GB on PC, and will require 160GB of free space to install. If you find yourself without the space to install the update, we recommend uninstalling Baldur’s Gate 3 and then re-downloading the patched version!"

it copys 100gb of existing data to another location, downloads 10gb of new data.
then it patches the coped data before moving it back and overwriting the original files

just uninstall the whole game and redownload it.

thank you, i love you
