- Lightroom Version Number
- 11.4.1
- Operating System
- macOS 10.15 Catalina
So, my 1TB SSD on my 2018 Mac Mini was getting rather full.
I decided to ditch my LR catalog as it was 227GB. I made a copy to an external drive just in case, and then deleted it. Couldn't wait for all that sweet sweet extra HD space to show up. Except it did not.
It increased by maybe 15GB, which might have been other stuff in the bin
Anyone else experienced this?
I have run disk utility in Recovery Mode, and suggested fix for the issue of HD space not being reclaimed after you empty the bin, did not help.
Tried to boot in Safe Mode, for similar reasons, I am unable to, it just does not happen - boots normally.
I know that this is more a Mac problem, not a LR problem, but thought I would ask here incase some weirdo issue with Lightroom has caused it in this instance.
I have also asked in other Mac forums.
Thanks in advance,
Craig
