Is there a way to defragment my iMac for a cleaner and faster working experience?
Our Macs have elegantly and automatically defragged themselves when we aren't looking since 2000, so fragmentation is unlikely your issue. Third-party "cleaning" apps generally degrade performance, as will anti-virus. Avoid!
98% of all "slow iMac" reports here end up being storage-related, either a mechanical hard drive or a misbehaving Apple Fusion system (storage option). The EtreCheck report will tell us your drive type and if its performance is sub-par. Etrecheck is the single best tool for our helping in this venue where we can neither see nor remotely access your computer. It will NOT reveal any personal information or security details.
