I did a find for all my core files and found these: I'm learning about them as well in my Unix book for OS 10 by Dave Taylor. Just came across your post about core files. menu, and then type "/cores." Now, trash the size-eaters, and restart. You can access the /cores folder through the Go -> Go to folder. In my case, about 30 files of weights ranging from 30 to 70Mb were present.Īlthough I couldn't find a way to avoid these files from being created, I found an easy way to delete them. This folder contains core.XXX (with XXX being a number) files which apparently are images of the computer memory that are left for debugging reasons after crashes or forced restarts.
There's a hidden folder in OS X called /cores. I tried many attempts with Norton Disk Doctor, File Buddy, etc., to locate new files and solve the issue. However, one thing would not come back: 1.4Gb of my hard disk seemed to be lost. A few months ago, I had a crash involving iTunes from which I could recover after the usual fsck at restart.
