Hard disk is almost full

I recently updated my MacBook Air and now every time I try and open my Outlook Email App for work I get a message that my hard disk is almost full and it says I need to work offline. The app forces me to close it after that.


I know Big Sur took up a lot of my space and I had to delete a lot of stuff I had saved just to install the app but what can I do now to free up some hard disk space??

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 11.1

There are a lot of methods to do that - clean the Trash, remove caches and temporary files. If you have an external drive or cloud storage - transfer some files you don't desperately need.

If you have an iPhone or iPad and synced it with the Mac - also look for old backups.
