Mini’app’les Topic Meeting, Tuesday March 15 at 6:00 p.m.

Mac Maintenance Apps

*** Please note: This meeting will be both in-person and online. ***

A good general rule of routine Mac maintenance: First, do nothing!

Modern Mac’s seldom require regular maintenance to operate at their best. Gone are the days of “rebuilding your desktop file”, “defragging” and “zapping your PRAM”. For most users, Mac’s can go for years without having to do much extra work to keep them running at their best.

That being said, there are special cases and considerations where you may need a maintenance app or utilities to either fix something or have more insight into. That may be freeing up disk space, deleting old disk images, or seeing what is using up system resources.

Let’s first discuss what maintenance macOS does automatically on its own, then review some good recommendations for maintenance apps.

Please join us at the next Mini’app’les meeting!
