.DocumentRevisions folder is taking up 68 GB of space. Is there anything I can do about this?
Hi,
I'm running out of space on my macbook pro internal hard drive and am confused by the 198GB of 'other' files listed.
Using Omnidisksweeper, I've found that the '.DocumentRevisions' folder is taking up 68 GB of space. Is there anything I can do about this? I've googled this but it seems there are a lot of people talking about deleting the folder without really understanding what it is used for. I don't want to mess up my machine just to save a few gigs, but would like the space back if there is a safe way to do it.
I use an external drive for Time Machine backups. Not sure if this has any bearing upon the discussion
Cheers,
Anthony
