A single forgotten 10 GB video, an old virtual machine disk, or a massive installer you meant to delete years ago โ CleanMachine scans your home folder and lists every file over 50 MB, sorted by size. Free to see, $19.99 to manage.
macOS 13+ ยท Apple Silicon & Intel ยท Scanning always free
Storage issues follow a power law: a small number of large files account for the majority of your wasted space. Finding and removing just 3โ5 large files you no longer need often recovers more space than hours of granular cache cleaning.
Common large files hiding on Macs:
CleanMachine scans your entire home directory recursively, comparing each file's size against the threshold. The default is 50 MB, which you can adjust. Results are sorted by size (largest first) so the highest-value targets are always at the top. Each row shows the file name, full path, and size.
Download CleanMachine and run the Large Files scan. Free scan shows every file over 50 MB with sizes and paths. Only $19.99 once to remove the ones you don't need.
macOS 13+ ยท No subscription ยท 30-day money-back guarantee
Yes. The Large Files view has a configurable threshold. The default is 50 MB, but you can adjust it to find files over any size โ useful if you want to see only truly massive files (say, 500 MB+) or drill into smaller files that add up.
The current version scans your home directory. For external drives, you can use the Space Visualizer which lets you navigate to any mounted volume and drill down the folder hierarchy to find large content.
Use the "Show in Finder" button to open the file's location in Finder and inspect it before deciding. If you remove it and change your mind, it goes to CleanMachine Trash โ not permanently deleted โ so you can restore it.
