Feb 19, 2016 5:38 AM in response to Matas22by Loner T,The simplest and safest method to get your disk space back is
1. Backup OSX and all your files - Use Time Machine to back up or restore your Mac - Apple Support .
2. Boot into Internet Recovery (Command+Opt+R) - OS X: About OS X Recovery - Apple Support .
3. Click on Utilties -> Disk Utility and Erase your internal whole disk.
4. Restore OSX and your files - Use Time Machine to back up or restore your Mac - Apple Support .
This requires a separate external disk which can accommodate TM backup - Backup disks you can use with Time Machine - Apple Support .
There are other methods using Terminal diskutil commands, but a backup is highly recommended.
