[QUOTE="Rod, post: 1816256, member: 204485"] So I downloaded Daisy Disk and found the below results: [ATTACH=FULL]29514[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=FULL]29515[/ATTACH] So she has 370Gb of Hidden Space of which 166.4Gb is Free or Purgeable. This phenomenon is apparently a characteristic of APFS but my question is what to do about it? Do we just ignore it and allow the system to use this space as it sees fit while the Apple menu continues to say the is only 81Gb of storage left or is there a way to free it up so that indexing can see it?
