Free Space on Your Mac Hard Drive [ + Secret Tips to Delete Final Cut Pro Render Files]

Thank you and simple step by step guide that helped me lots.

Thank you soooooooooooo much I went from over 200 gb of storage being used up to 43 gb

Just recovered 800 GBs of storage space, thank you sir

Can't thank you enough for this. Saved hundreds of GB in storage. I didn't realise you could manually delete the render files like that. Doh!

Thank you so much this video. I had been stopped cold from editing. Very grateful.

Again, your advice is the best - cheers

I just want to remove the project from my computer. How do I do that?

Im Back... thank you for keeping this Tutorial Online....

Thank you for your knowledge. Much appreciated.

Great video, saved me 1.5TB of space from several libraries!, thanks!

saved 110GB only in 1 FCPX library.. Thank You.. :)

I don't even know what rendering means, I've been editing for 3 years lol and I still need videos like this

Thank you so Much! Your videos are the best for learning Final Cut Pro.

Hi Ben. Thanks for this video, it has helped me clear all the rendered files from my FCPX. Would you have any idea why when i drop my footage onto the Timeline, the sound lags by about 1 second. I thought following your tutorial would cure the problem. I've even deleted FCPX and downloaded a new one from Apple, but it's still doing it. I am at a loss as to what can be causing it to do this. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

PS: WAYYYYY to many ads. I had 12 ads. That's just nuts.

Thank you so much

Very helpful! Thank you!

Thanks, very informative! I have a question: is there any way in FCP of finding that files that I've imported into the project aren't being used at all? Like the timeline index feature, but in reverse, as it were?

You literally saved my life!

Thanks, that was super useful :)

Thanks a lot! Your video have changed my life! A library for my recent video was 113 Gb. Just to be clear... a small video 2 minutes... and library 113 Gb I am happy today with this secret tips you share! ❤️

You have no idea how much this saved me! Was pulling my hair out for the longest time xD Thank you! Liked and subbed!

Thank you so much .. i was struggling with how FCX is eating up my space; my a project was consuming 87 GB and now it only consumes 3 GB

Thank you. This was helpful!! Space management is a forever thing, lol!!

Thank you So much!

This was amazing! You saved me from buying another hard drive! I was clearing my generated files and rendered files. But I didnt click on the library before doing it. I was in an event and I thought it was clearing everything. Thanks for the best video ever!

Just got 100 gigs back, thanks so much man!

Thank you for such a straight forward video! Do you find that manual rendering helps to speed up the editing process?

Just with the first step I went from 213GB to 1.3GB...insane...

Thanks much! This was really helpful

i was about to start crying bless you kind sir

This is so so ssssso helpful !Thanks A LOT ! YEAH. My computer got 100GB again.

Oh Geez. New to Mac. I had 1 TB tied up in only two projects. No wonder I was getting warnings.

Thank you so much sir, I was working on a 40 mins long project on which I spent more than 2 weeks and i completely deleted all the useful things which I had in my Mac just to complete the project but still the space was not enough.. now after deleting the rendering files I more than 140gb available in my Mac. 😀

YOU ARE MY SAVIOR

I went from 62GB to 4GB THANK YOU SO MUCH

My problem is cache. Out of 750 GB, around 605 GB is showing as cache.

You're a great teacher! Thank you for the tips. 🙏

Thank you! Stay safe ;)

Thank you very much, Sir! You saved my day :)

Thank you so much 2 TBs used, now only 1!

thank you fro teaching me this!! I don't have a external hard drive, so I have to constantly clean this up every few months. I appreciate this video so so much!!!

Thank you! I never knew how to manually get rid of render files. The "delete generated files" command wasn't working for me today, and it always used to. You saved me a huge headache!

Perfect video to help save space. I freed up a little over 400GB on my hard drive today. Thanks so much........Take care, Bluefin.

My Mac OS doesn’t look like this, 2019 MacBook Pro 16” - I get all the way up to the event, but nothing I do reveals the “render files”

literally a life saver!!! thank you!!!

Thank you sooooooo much for a very clear and detailed instructions.... I was able to free 600 gb from the drive.... !!!! thank you!!!!!!!!

Final Cut Pro is REALLY scary with that "this can not be undone" message. 😂

Thanks Ben.
