Hard drive full of system data on macOS, how can I change it?
Dropbox eats up computer memory in the form of system data, although all folders are not set to "offline available", but can only be viewed online. How do I fix the problem?
The computer has 500 GB...
I have the exact same thing. Talked to someone on the support, for hours, checking the files and, in the end, they are going to see with a "dropbox specialist" and I'm waiting for them to get back to me.
In our case, we have 361Gb of system data taken on our 500Gb hard drive. We are working with videos and it's becoming impossible to even have videos on our hard drive.
Back then, I heard there was a dropbox cache that people could delete, but since there a new "File Provider".... My feeling is that now, whatever was in the cache is not accessible.... If anyone knows what to do, I'll be happy to hear about it.
That sounds like the same case. I also had at least 200 GB of data in my Dropbox. If these and the backup files and cashes are stored in the system data, this explains the approx. 350 GB of "system data", which are actually Dropbox cashes. As a normal user, I can't delete anything in the system data. Now the question is how to delete these cashes. Please write when you have made progress in your case.
