Hello,
I have a macbook pro 2019 with Mojave (10.14.6) and I wanted to install the new Ventura (13.0.1).
Unfortunately the download was interrupted two times near the end, leaving me with about 20 GB less of storage.
How can I delete those files to free up that space?
Thanks in advance
MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 10.14
I would.
To find huge files...
Thanks to BobHarris file sizes, Applications -> Utilities -> Terminal:...
sudo du -hx | sort -h
sudo du -hx ~/| sort -h
Thanks that was very helpful. Now I know there is something strange going on. I checked all big files and there is nothing big enough of 15-20 GB. I only saw music, videos, and files that I recognised. I also used a disk cleaner to get additional clues but I got nothing promising. Could it be possible that those updates went elsewhere?
Apparently Apple has a new way of hiding files & more than a few find out the only way is to Backup, then Erase the Drive, or clone then clone back which seems to leave some huge temporary files behind!?
Is there anything starting with Install MacOS as a start in Applications or Downloads?
Nope, nothing at all unfortunately.
I also checked Library/Updates and I found those files. They are just a couple KB size though. Should I delete those?
delete unfinished OS updates on Mojave
