Many Mac users feel that they do not need to run a cleaning program on their Mac ever. Others feel that Mac cleaners are good when and if their Mac begins to have performance issues or show a drop in speed. However, if you want your Mac to run at its best performance and remain its speedy self, then it is wise to use a tool like OnyX for Mac. Look at it as free preventative care for one of your most valuable assets.

Features of the OnyX for Mac include:Â

Onyx For Mac El Capitan

Disk maintenance, cache clean-up, index rebuilding, clearing the browser cache, font caches, boot, kernel and extension caches, as well as logs from crash reporters, system diagnostics and software update.

Letâ€™s begin with a short tutorial that will help you know how to use Onyx for Mac:

Onyx For Mac Catalina

Backup: As the screen shot from the OnyX utility shows, your first step should be to backup your Mac. This is preferably done prior to downloading OnyX to your Mac. You can backup your data using Time Machine or a third-party backup utility.Â
Download OnyX: Before downloading OnyX, be aware that there are different versions of OnyX for your Mac. They are based on what OS your Mac has: Jaguar, Panther, Tiger, Leopard, Snow Leopard and even the newest: OnyX Lion. It is very important to choose the correct OS version as OnyX is designed to specifically work with each OS, and will not work properly with the wrong version.
Install: Install is very basic and similar to other program installations. Drag and drop OnyX into your Applications and Install will begin. At one point, after clicking through some permissions and hitting next a few times, you will be asked for your Mac system password. Enter the password and you are done with the Onyx for Mac installation.
S.M.A.R.T. Status: OnyX will now verify the S.M.A.R.T. status and Startup Volume.Â Allow OnyX to run these diagnostic tools, and then prepare to wait as this diagnostic tool can take some time. The program will assure you that this is normal and to not worry. I am glad they added this warning to some of their diagnostic tools, as they can take quite a bit of time which may concern you if you were not aware of what was happening.Â S.M.A.R.T. stands for: Self Monitoring Analysis and Reporting Technology. Most disks have S.M.A.R.T. hardware that is used to test and monitor your Macâ€™s hard drive. This tool will be checking its status. This diagnostic tool is important as it may prevent the failure of your hard drive. Make sure you use the S.M.A.R.T. diagnostic tool when you first use OnyX for your Mac, after that you can run it as needed.
The next step depends on what you do next with OnyX for Mac
