I tried to upgrade to MacOS Monterey, but I couldn't continue the update because I didn't have enough storage. I went to delete in application the installation to MacOS Monterey to free up the space but it took up space in 'other' in my storage space. How do I free up the space that the unfinished installation took up in my others files? Please help

The files that you have control over are located in the Documents, Downloads, Pictures, Music and Movies folders. You can use either of these two free apps, GrandPerspective or OmniDiscSweeper, to find the largest files on your drive so you can determine if they can be deleted or moved to an external HD for storage.
Note: you can empty the Downloads folder after the apps and/or updates that were downloaded have been installed or applied. Many users have found a couple of Gigabytes of files in their Downloads folder which are no longer needed.
