His son, who wanted to install a new game on his laptop, but could not do it because the drive was “clogged” with other games and the largest place was occupied by a game from Steam, asked for the help of a specialist. And when the father tried to clean the disk using standard methods, the system generated an error; I couldn’t even empty the recycle bin: a message appeared stating that there was no free space on the SSD.
No third-party programs or even attempts to purge the driver via the command line helped. As a result, the disk had to be reset to factory settings and all data was deleted. However, it was not possible to later restore the data from Apple Time Machine backups.
