It does search successfully for files on your computer without slowing your computer down or taking excessively long. This program fulfills its desired function quickly and admirably. No files that we searched for were found by EasyFind any quicker than when we did the same search with Spotlight. Redundant app: This app may have had a place in the past, but with Spotlight and file organization being so good in current Mac operating systems, it seems redundant. A little more design planning may make the program more usable. It has the look of a much older program, and the options settings are so small that some of them were hard to read. Outdated interface: EasyFind looks like it was designed several years ago and hasn't been updated since. I checked the Logitech Options Daemon (see upthread) which was Enabled. I downloaded the previous version of the installer - 'LogiMgr Installer 6.94.38' - and installed the driver. You also only have to click a checkbox in order to include invisible files and folders in your search, which is a welcome feature. I Trashed or Destroyed every Logitech file I could find with EasyFind (including invisible files). You can also specify a search of only file contents and can use Boolean operators to further outline the parameters of your search. Maybe someone can suggest a better way of tracing where these files are being written stored using snapshotting or something.Good options: EasyFind really gives you all of the options you'll need to narrow your search down.

What if i use the HBO app and download multiple GB of HD video for offline watching? How do i reclaim this space in a pinch? Do i have to do it within the app? What if i have deleted the app and can't re-download it? But it does kind of concern me that iOS apps will eat up disk space that the user has little control over.
Now, maybe this is marked as purgeable space and with more time or a restart this space will eventually be purged by the filesystem. Therefore they must be stored in a cache in some mystery location, and not deleted if you send the app to the trash (or at least not immediately). This morning i re-downloaded it from the App Store, launched it, and all the previously downloaded podcasts were still there in the library, that is they didn't need to be downloaded again. The disk space did not seem to change by very much (hard to tell with APFS, as it jumps around a lot due to periodic purging of reclaimed space).
Last night I sent the Overcast app binary to the trash, and emptied it. If youre unsure of exactly which model and revision you own, take advantage of the Mac identification page. Variations of MacBooks, MacBook Pros, PowerBooks, iBooks, iMacs, Mac Pros, or Mac Minis have the tendency to look the same, but may have different internal hardware. In case anyone is interested I did some minor testing. Identifying exactly which Mac you own can sometimes be a challenge.
If not, this is a pretty terrible oversight, given how a user could fill up their disk quite easily with some iOS apps and how obscure this location is. I'll be keeping an eye on the Containers folder to see if the huge Overcast folder eventually gets purged. Reveal in Finder sends me to various differently named locations within the Containers/Overcast folder.Īnyway, i've deleted the Overcast app again. It does find a bunch of files with 'overcast' in the name in folders within Containers seemingly with UUID names but these don't match with those in the Finder. EasyFind (my go-to app for digging into the system folders), does not see the ~/Library/Containers/Overcast folder at all. There seems to be some weirdness going on with the file system naming (or possible text encoding of names?). There are also a bunch of folders in Containers with different UUIDs, but no clue which are linked to which iOS apps, if any. Actually there is a ~/Library/Containers/Overcast folder that is 4GB, and Data/Documents within that is where the audio files are (m4a, some are playable, some not, no idea why.). Yes, the files seem to be in the ~/Library/Containers/folder.
