Sure, install more apps to clean stuff up. Ummm something wrong with that.
I know a free app. I used to find useless duplicates and old/large files before, it’s named MacClean. Maybe have the similar features you said in this post.
DaisyDisk helped me hunt down almost 42GB of space that I could free. Random cache files, message attachments, old defunct email archives.. Very useful!
I would like to recommend the free app MacClean – with just this one single app, all cleanup and optimizing work can be done easily. Not just cleans system junks, it also gives 10 small utilities to remove useless space-hoggers, like old large files, unwanted iTunes backups, duplicates, unused language files, unwanted apps etc. It cleaned out 5.03 GB on my first run. That’s really a lot.
