Attempts to clear space in /var/cache/apt/archives failed when installing kali-linux-everything

So to preface this: I know there are other threads on other sites that covered this, however their methods did not work. https://askubuntu.com/questions/1789...e-apt-archives and https://askubuntu.com/questions/1151...e-apt-archives

If there are threads that adequately answer my question on this site, I do apologize.

Have a fairly-new install of Kali linux that has none of the pen testing tools that I would like.

Attempting to install via Sudo apt-get install kali-linux-everything.

However, I receive this message: E: You don't have enough free space in /var/cache/apt/archives/.

I tried to create a new directory as per the above solutions to link to the archives path, as well as autoclean and clean. Even expanded the virtual hard drive allocation to the VM, which--yes--I now know does not affect the size of the /var/cache/apt/archives/ folder.

Not sure how to post images to show the result of a df -H command, but I can provide this image for anyone able and willing to help out.

Would anyone be kind enough to help solve this, or recommend a better alternative, such as an ISO with more pre-installed security tools?

I would prefer to resolve this issue to improve my knowledge with the Kali Linux OS, so if anyone has another solution, it would be appreciated.latest?d=yIl2AUoC8zA latest?i=QRLPaAw4Mxk:capDtPGUfik:F7zBnMy latest?i=QRLPaAw4Mxk:capDtPGUfik:V_sGLiP latest?d=qj6IDK7rITs latest?i=QRLPaAw4Mxk:capDtPGUfik:gIN9vFwQRLPaAw4Mxk
