[QUOTE="pm-r, post: 1670758, member: 175845"] I have used [B]Onyx[/B] successfully occasionally over the years, but I will admit that the last time I used it recently with my Mavericks iMac to clear some stubborn cache files etc., my iMac was not behaving as it should or as fast after it had finished. And Console was just going absolutely berserk with entries!!! I did some googling and one particular rather technical article mentioned that using Onyx can leave some folders not set properly and a suggested solution was to use [B]Mavericks Cache Cleaner[/B]( now [B]Yosemite Cache Cleaner[/B]): [url=http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/9503/yosemite-cache-cleaner]Yosemite Cache Cleaner for Mac | MacUpdate[/url] [url]http://www.northernsoftworks.com/yosemitecachecleaner.html[/url] I ran the supported [B]Yosemite Cache Cleaner[/B] for the same Maintenance on the cache folders, and my iMac started to preform much better, and like it's old self. So, not knocking [B]Onyx[/B] and what it can do, but I think I'll be giving [B]Yosemite Cache Cleaner[/B] the first chance from now on, even though it's $10.00usd and Onyx is Free. But Yosemite Cache Cleaner seemed to run well in un-paid mode just last week. And it seemed to work well, if not better. Just saying… ;) [/QUOTE]
