ClearDisk For Mac

Storage space is a limited resource, so ensuring that you make the most of it is a must. ClearDisk is an easy to use macOS application that can help you identify and delete junk files or unwanted resources in order to gain more space.

The ClearDisk application focuses on four types of files: language resources, downloaded files, caches, and items that have been sent to the Trash. All you have to do is select the type of data you want to search for, and ClearDisk will scan your computer on its own.

All detected files will be listed in the results area, and each item has a check box associated. Via the ClearDisk contextual menu you can choose to see the file in its original location by opening the containing folder in a Finder window, to open its Get Info panel, or to remove it from the list.

Working with the ClearDisk application proves to be somewhat intuitive: scan for junk files, verify that you actually want to delete the files, tick the associated check box, and then just press the “Clean” button.

Next to each item you can see the file size, but ClearDisk also provides details about the total size of the detected data, and the amount of storage space that is about to be cleaned up.

To conclude, ClearDisk can help you use your storage space in a more efficient manner but keep in mind that the disk scanning tools are quite limited: it cannot find resources files left behind by uninstalled utilities, files that have not been used in a long time, and so on.
