OS X disks don't get filled with useless crap that doesn't get removed like Windows does. Most apps you remove by simply dragging to the trash. The way to make room is to delete things you don't need, or move them to external drives/other machines/the cloud, etc.

There's no included app as such. There's a few apps around such as Daisy Disk or GrandPerspective that can help you find big files, but you can just as easily use the Finder's in-built Find option to find files by size.

There's also a couple of apps such as AppZapper that (supposedly) delete an unwanted app and all its extra files. Realistically you can just drag an unwanted app to the Trash and empty it, and that will get rid of almost the entire thing. Anything still left behind is usually just small files like preferences, etc. There's also apps such as Onyx that allow you to do things like run the Daily / Weekly / Monthly clean-up routines whenever you want as well as clean out caches, etc.

like Windows does. Most apps you remove by simply dragging to the trash. Only dragging the app to trash leaves the preferences in the Library and possibly many support files in /Library.

In the case of Adobe CS6, the icense is stored in files whose names are totally unrealted to Adobe. And Adobe seems to be creating directories in many many places leaving some junk there. At one point, Adobe did provide de-install scripts that really zapped all the files related to the product.

Note that this isn't so much about disk space utilization, but more about leaving crud behind when you think you have removed an app. Nospam 27/3/2016, 19:49 น.

and possibly many support files in /Library. In the case of Adobe CS6, Sorry, we are talking about competent software vendors and the usual case here, Adobe litters your entire hard drive with shit it is nearly impossible to remove. People who choose/have to run Adobe software are well aware of this.

At one point, Adobe did provide de-install scripts that really zapped all the files related to the product. And often other files as well.

It hunts down all the files that aren't in the app package itself and removes them as well. It doesn't remove 'product' (eg: photos or documents created/edited with the app) (nor should it).

Since the storage is SSD there is no speed advantage to cleaning up the disk structure as it was (once upon a time) in another OS, far, far away. As someone else pointed out, Onxy has a lot of tools to tidy up your installation. That said, I haven't used it since about 10.6 or so.

What a fucking asshole you are. Your professionalism impresses me. On top of Adobe and Garmin which have a lot of stuff oitside of the.APP 'file', consider browsers and where they leave their preferences, bookmarks, and most importantly, the cache files. Consider where plugins such as Flash are located.

Look at the instructions to manually de-install flash (which I have to frequenly do because the isntaller for mere updates often fails for me). Not all applicatiosn is just a word processor or image editor where you choose where your files are located. Consider that some apps also leave crud in the various 'startup' directories (launcgagent/daemons as well as whatever other method to have stuff run when you boot and/or login). I know your religion compells your to paint OS0-X as perfect where to get rid of an App, just drag it to the trash.

The reality is that OS-X is an operating system with a certain organisation and in many cases, that organisation means that an app leaves files in many places. It forced a number of apps to change where they locate themselve and where they leave files so they are not all in /Applications because OS-X is also a Unix operating system and it also supports unix applications.

On top of Adobe and Garmin which have a lot of stuff oitside of the.APP 'file', consider browsers and where they leave their preferences, bookmarks, and most importantly, the cache files. Garmin has large map data files. It's an exception. On my system, adobe is using a whopping 41 megabytes in my application support folder. The main app support folder has more but that's because cs. is a suite with shared code and other assets. Adobe provides an uninstaller for those who want to uninstall it.

Browser bookmark files are tiny and cached data does not count. Other apps have little to nothing in app support. Savageduck 28/3/2016, 23:39 น.

So I use Gemini.app to find exact duplicates and remove them. I used to have something-I think it was called DupeGuru-that would compare images and identify files that were different versions of the same image. (Saved with different quality, or cropped, or resized, for example.) Not sure why I don't still have it.:-(.
