Free Space Error – MacOS

Every now and then I’ll move some huge file, a 40GB VM or something and various programs don’t show the space it was in as free.  Confusingly some do.  df -h shows the wrong free space while “About This Mac” is right.

Apparently, this is a TimeMachine problem!

This command fixed it for me as per the article below.

sudo tmutil thinLocalSnapshots / 10000000000 4
