Published in Video Editing 1 min read

You can delete generated files in Final Cut Pro by using the Media Management feature. This feature allows you to control the storage space used by your projects.

Here's how to delete generated files:

  1. Open Final Cut Pro and select File > Media Management.
  2. Select the project you want to manage.
  3. Choose "Optimize Media" from the "Media Management" window.
  4. Select "Delete Generated Files" and click "Optimize."

Final Cut Pro will then delete all the generated files associated with your project, including:

  • Render Files: These are temporary files created during the rendering process.
  • Optimized Media: These are smaller versions of your original media that are used for faster playback.
  • Proxies: These are low-resolution versions of your media that are used for editing on slower computers.

By deleting these files, you can free up disk space and improve performance.
