iCloud suddenly downloaded all files without me doing anything. How to reverse?
Last night I had 79 GB of space on my 2016 MBP with Big Sur. As I'm reading the news this morning before doing anything else on my Mac I get a notice that I'm almost out of storage. I was down to around 50 MB and declining. I went to About This Mac / Storage / Manage and clicked the Manage button. Then I clicked the Store In iCloud and checked both buttons. That clawed back a bit over 3 GB so at least the computer can operate but I want all my files in iCloud except the very few I use now. How do I get there again?
This mess did not occur on my 2020 Mac Mini M1 with Big Sur.
