OmniDiskSweeper 1.13 for Mac introduces support for macOS 11 Big Sur.
Omnidisksweeper sudo full#
(To grant access to all files on your Mac, you’ll also need to grant Full Disk Access as noted above, since even the root superuser cannot access all files otherwise.) When doing this, please note that any files you trash from the app will go to root’s Trash (in ~root/.Trash) rather than the current user’s Trash.Ĭrash Reporting - Updated OmniCrashCatcher for improved macOS Ventura compatibility. To grant OmniDiskSweeper access to files not readable by the current user, open Terminal and use sudo to run OmniDiskSweeper as the root superuser. Information collected by OmniDiskSweeper is only used for the results displayed to you within the app we do not track or store that data for use by anyone else anywhere else.) (OmniDiskSweeper needs Full Disk Access to be able to scan your entire disk-otherwise, it can’t scan for files in your Trash among other locations. To grant OmniDiskSweeper access to any files the current user can read, open Security Preferences in System Preferences, choose Full Disk Access, and add the OmniDiskSweeper app. (For example, a size of “1.8 GB+” indicates that the content OmniDiskSweeper was able to access was 1.8 GB, but there was additional content which OmniDiskSweeper was unable to read.) Incomplete sizes will always be sorted above complete sizes, since there’s no telling how large that content actually is.


Incomplete Size Indicator - When OmniDiskSweeper cannot fully read the contents of a file or directory (due to system protections or file permissions), it places a + sign next to its size to indicate that the reported value is an incomplete, minimum value rather than the total size. This release is a macOS Universal app, which can run natively on both M1-powered Macs and Intel-based Macs running macOS 11 Big Sur or later. OmniDiskSweeper 1.14 now displays an indication of sizes which are incomplete due to system protections or file permission constraints.
