I need to clear up valuable storage space on my MacBook Pro. The grey-colored "Other" section on storage is taking up 90G's of space. How do I access "Other" to clear up some space. Is there a quick fix? How do I avoid getting files placed in "Other?"
Your genius help is appreciated.
MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 11.3
