Clean Up Mac disk to fix Slow Mac

With the passage of time we usually start facing the problem of spinning wheel in Mac. Our Mac starts running very slowly and it disrupts both our concentration and output.

In windows there is an inbuilt tool to cleanup disk and keep the hard drive free from junk files , cache and other leftovers. But, in Mac this is not the case. So, we need to opt for a third party tool to SpeedUp Mac performance to get rid of slow Mac. The application, I have reviewed in last couple of months, is Stellar speed up Mac.

Although it is safe to clean up Mac disk to fix Slow Mac issues with this speed up utility but still it is suggested to create a valid backup of mac data.
The application is comprised of three modules.
  1. SpeedUp Mac : This option is targetted to deal with the unused applications and data in main volume (bootable volume). The software removes five types of files from boot volume.
a. Large files
b. Cache and temporary files
c. Language files
d. Universal binaries
e. Duplicate files


One can also change the settings of these files in terms of their size, accessing frequency , file filtering and languages. The user can preserve the important files by deselecting it from the list.
  1. Clean My Mac: This module of Stellar speed up Mac is meant for both bootable volume and non-bootable volume as well. The files which are removed are aagn the same as mentioned above .
  2. Uninstaller : This option is designed to remove unused Mac applications from your machine and help you to avail free space on Mac drive. This section deal with Applications, Widgets and plugins installed in your system.


How to use Stellar SpeedUp Mac

Step 1. Choose the type of file and make the necessary changes in its setting to remove them from your Mac drive.

Step 2. Select SpeedUp Mac if you want to deal with bootable volume else click Clean my Mac and choose the volume from where you want to remove useless data and continue the process.


Step 4. Select the uninstaller to remove applications. This offers you an option to delete the unused program by just drag and drop. It will clear all the related files of that application.


The installer has four options to be implemented on all the partitions of your drive.These are
  1. Applications 2. Widgets 3. Plugins

The fast performance and easy language brings this application more closer to Mac users.
