Apple #MacOS with multiple #users. My 2Tb disk was getting #full for unknown reason. #Finder does not show file sizes.
Tried using #MacPaw#cleanmymac to clean disk. No change.
Massive 'system data' shown in storage menu 'about my mac'.
Only #daisyDisk installed as free standing app NOT from (Apple Store!) using scan as administrator was able to find the 1) users with large video files 2) delete 'purgable space' presumably containing #timemachine junk.
Can anyone justify Apple #macOS design?
@yakkoj I think they are due to my setting backups to automatic but the TM external disks not being attached, so it makes a hidden snapshop. Toggling automatic to off seems to have effect of getting rid of them. But what a silly work-around! It should ask you 'Make snapshots when TM drive not accessible? Y/N'
