Empty All Trash
The Trash is very valuable in case you mistakenly delete files. However, if you and any other users on your system forget to empty their Trash this can quickly eat up disk space. If you're low on disk space, try emptying all Trash on your system.
To empty all Trash:
- Choose User > Empty All Trash.
By default emptying the Trash may leave traces of the deleted files on your disk. If you want to get rid of the files for good, choose User > Secure Empty All Trash.
Important: these tasks will empty all Trash on your system, including that of other users on your Mac.
