Is there a way to do cleanup manually after failed download

Hello,

Thanks for providing this tool! I have a few failures when I try to download MacOS, and the temporary download files take some space. Is there a way I can do the cleanup manually?

Thank you!

You can clear the macOS Installer cache manually:
Mist in the menu bar → Settings…InstallersRemove…

@myang80, @F1248 is correct - downloaded files can be removed via Settings > Installers > Cache downloads

For partial files that failed to download successfully, they live somewhere in /private/var/folders/... Restarting macOS will get rid of those 👍
