Hi all, I've deleted lots of junk from my hard drive in order to create space for a Bootcamp partition.
This freed up 200 gigs on my drive, but it is still considered purge data. I don't know how to quickly get rid of the purged data. I am not even sure what exactly purged data means. I think it means unused old files on my computer, but I don't know if they are old files I have decided to keep in a folder, or if it is more like songs I heard 3 years ago in iTunes, and never heard again. At any rate, I am going to trust that Apple will not delete say, my folder with mp3's I recorded in school 20 years ago, and saved in a folder with all my files, and just haven't listened to in 10 years. I want to free up what I already think is free space on my hard drive by deleting this purge data once and for all. I downloaded, installed, and ran a scan with something called Clean My Mac that would do this for you, but only completes the task after you purchase the program for $38. I've gone to about this Mac, then toolbar, then storage, then manage, and optimize storage. Nothing there indicates I can delete purged data immediately. Are there any other solutions?
