Macbook Air Storage
« on: March 08, 2016, 05:55:03 PM »
I only keep my Macbook Air at home for browsing the web and such.... it's one of the very last core 2 duo Airs (maybe late 10 or early 11?) and noticed that it is all ways at least half full of suff I can't seem to find and/or delete...

I think it should only be using 10-15 GB from a fresh install of 10.11.x (doesn't have a fresh install but has no files or programs) but after install with no files and programs, I am getting only about 20-30 GB of free space on the 64 GB SSD... don't know if this normal but if it's not how may I be able to fix it?

One Mac OSX Equivalent for Treesize is something like Disk Inventory X.

It's possible the added space being used is from updates, or perhaps the installer is still on the SSD in a download folder if it was upgraded.
