Is restoring my MacBook Air to factory settings a wise decision?
Hello, I'm wondering if someone can advise me on whether restoring my MacBook Air to factory settings would be a wise move considering my situation: I bought my device in 2019 after my MacBookPro crashed. Stupidly, I transferred the whole of the pro onto it, immediately using up almost all of the spare memory. It's been ok using it until now, but given that I can't update the OS - still on Mojave - many aspects of it are no longer working or becoming creaky...
My thinking is that if I restore to factory settings - saving everything I need - I will be able to free up enough space to update the system and start again without all the MacBookPro stuff taking up all the memory.
Is this realistic? Is there anything I need to consider etc. Is this a viable solution?
Any advice appreciated.
Many thanks, Scott
