Re: Hidden Space
Hello Severin, Scan the disc as Administrator https://daisydiskapp.com/manual/2/en/Topics/AdminScan.html Hidden Disk Space Strange hidden space may also be caused by a third-party backup application that created a temporary disk image and then terminated abnormally without cleaning it up. Use ls -la /Volumes/ command in Terminal app to check if this is the case. https://daisydiskapp.com/manual/2/en/Topics/HiddenSpace.html Kind regards, Ronni Ronni Brown’s iPad Pro 12.9-inch 256GB > On 14 Mar 2019, at 4:06 pm, Severin Crisp wrote: > > I became aware of a reduction in free space on my MacAir, 250GB SSD, High > Sierra.

Hidden Space
I became aware of a reduction in free space on my MacAir, 250GB SSD, High Sierra. Daisy disk shows 84GB of Hidden Space sure enough. I've so far been unable to locate this except that it is in the system, total nearly 100GB. Pointers on how to find and remove this please!
