[QUOTE="honestone33, post: 1831796"] Yes, Onyx is excellent, and I have been using it for a number of years. But, it is [B]imperative[/B] to use the correct version. For Mojave, Titanium Software today released V3.6.8. V3.7, which is for Catalina, has [B]not[/B] been released yet: [url=https://www.titanium-software.fr/en/onyx.html]Titanium Software | Operating system utilities for Mac - OnyX[/url] Well stated, and so, so accurate! Some folks have "chastised" me for being so meticulous with my cleanup, maintenance, and backup tasks, but I don't care. All of it works well for me. Just a couple of additional things that I do: 1. Permanently removed deleted EMails. I use Thunderbird, and it is easy to do that. 2. Make sure to do frequent backups to at least one external device. Myself, I use SuperDuper!, and make weekly backups for each of my Macs to two separate external SSDs. 3. At times, run the excellent malware/adware detection program Malwarebyes. It is free, and works well. I also have ClamXAv, which is more "powerful" than Malwarebytes, as it can also detects viruses. [/QUOTE]
