Library folder

Hi there,

I have many folders in System/Library that take much space on my disk and I don't know if actually they're useful or I can just delete them. The folders are


Privateframeworks, almost 3 GB of space

Frameworks, almost 2 GB

Speech, 1.6 GB

Templates, 1.09 GB

Extensions, 1 GB

CoreServices, 900 MB

LinguisticData, 900 MB


Is there a way to clean up useless files?


Thank you,

Raffaele

No, and applications shouldn't be putting files there anyway. Items that can be deleted will be in /Applications, /Library, and /Users.
