If you do not know this process, in that case here we will show you a way to quickly and easily optimize your device, so pay attention to this step by step.

In this case, what you will do is a "Spring Cleaning" of Mac, and to do it you have to enter the Storage Management application.

You can do it using Spotlight, that is, using the command-space and also clicking on the Apple logo located at the top left of the menu.
