All files on computer by size.

Under High Sierra, is there a way to list all files on a late 2013 macBook Pro by size?

I want to upgrade to Big Sur and I need more room on my 256 GB drive.

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 10.13

Open a Finder window

Select the top level of your drive (typically named Macintosh HD; something else if you renamed it)

In the Search oval, type * (just an asterisk, nothing else; search will begin automatically)

Click the Gear icon and select "Show View Options"

Click Size to make the size column appear in your Finder window

Then, in the Finder window, click the Size column header to list the files in size order
