You can delete cached files on your Mac using the Disk Cleanup utility in Finder. This will help free up space on your hard drive and improve your Mac's performance.
Here's how to do it:
- Open Finder by clicking its icon in the Dock.
- Select the "Go" menu at the top of the screen.
- Choose "Utilities" from the dropdown menu.
- Double-click the "Disk Cleanup" icon to launch the utility.
- Select the drive you want to clean up from the list.
- Click "Continue".
- Choose the types of files you want to delete, such as system cache, user cache, application cache, and more.
- Click "Delete" to remove the selected files.
You can also manually delete cached files by navigating to the following locations:
- Library/Caches
- Users/[username]/Library/Caches
- Users/[username]/Library/Application Support
- Users/[username]/Library/Preferences
Note: Be careful when deleting files from these folders as some may be required for applications to function correctly. If you are unsure about a particular file, it is best to leave it alone.
