I just lately acquired a MacBook Professional (Retina), OS Monterey, and turned iCloud syncing on for Paperwork and Desktop. It had downloaded (made native copies) greater than 200GB of information from my iCloud, then auto-deleted half of them (domestically), "Optimise storage" is checked.
After a couple of day, it began a obtain of that giant quantity of information once more, it took practically 5 hours, though I hadn’t clicked the obtain or take away obtain button close to the information. It repeated; it occurs as soon as in about +/- 5 days plus the full dimension of information being downloaded is all the time completely different. The cache which is created by this course of might be as massive as I’ve 1 GB of the native storage remaining (completely I’ve 255 GB). The button X close to the progress of obtain is not clickable. I wish to hold necessary information domestically and obtain some other ones if they’re wanted.
In one other thread somebody steered utilizing this command killall fowl && rm -rf CloudDocs, after eradicating them, it simply begins re-uploading and re-downloading all doable information, which takes a lot time. Please inform me the best way to eliminate this auto re-download/add, it’s a ineffective course of that eats system sources.
