Get Hard Drive Space Back With Monolingual
I spent some of my long weekend doing some maintenance on all my computers. When it came to my Mac, there wasn’t much to do, although I noticed the hard drive space was slowly filling up. Going through all my folders I deleted quite a bit of useless files that I didn’t need anymore, and proceeded to make backups of my important files. That helped, but certainly there was something else I could do to regain some space.
That is when I remembered a tool I used when I first installed Leopard to remove all the unwanted language files from the system. That application is called Monolingual. This application will go through the operating system and remove language resources that you direct it to. I set it to remove everything except for English, and I got back a whopping 3.9GB of space on my hard drive. That is quite impressive!
The best part is this application is free, and is something you really don’t have to use but every once and a while. Give it a download and reclaim some of your valuable drive space.
