Conveniently, you can do this even when your Time Machine backup disk isn&#8217;t&nbsp;available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>How? Time Machine stores some of its backups on your Mac. These backups are called \u201clocal snapshots.\u201d The good thing is that they don&#8217;t use the space needed for tasks like downloading files, copying files, or installing new software.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your Mac considers the space used by snapshots as available storage. Still, it is only them on disks that have enough free space. And Time Machine automatically deletes snapshots as they\u2019re replaced by newer snaps\u2014or if space on your hard or SSD drive is needed for other data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-often-local-snapshots-are-saved\">How often local snapshots are saved<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Time Machine automatically saves one snapshot of your startup disk every hour, and keeps it for 24 hours. It keeps an additional snapshot of your last successful Time Machine backup until space is needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-to-delete-local-snapshots\"><strong>How to delete local snapshots<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Still, if you want to delete local snapshots yourself, it\u2019s easy. Here\u2019s how:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u00b0&nbsp;Go to System Preferences &gt; Time Machine.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Graphic-three-1-2.jpg\" alt=\"Accessing Time Machine system preferences\" class=\"wp-image-77376\" width=\"473\" height=\"328\" srcset=\"https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Graphic-three-1-2.jpg 946w, https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Graphic-three-1-173x120-2.jpg 173w, https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Graphic-three-1-284x197-2.jpg 284w, https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Graphic-three-1-190x132-2.jpg 190w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 473px) 100vw, 473px\" \/><figcaption>Choose your backup drive in Time Machine.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>\u00b0 Within Time Machine Preferences, uncheck the option to Back Up Automatically. macOS will then delete local snapshots,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Graphic-two-1-3.jpg\" alt=\"Time Machine system preferences\" class=\"wp-image-77373\" width=\"643\" height=\"402\" srcset=\"https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Graphic-two-1-3.jpg 1286w, https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Graphic-two-1-192x120-2.jpg 192w, https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Graphic-two-1-284x178-2.jpg 284w, https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Graphic-two-1-190x119-2.jpg 190w, https:\/\/eshop.macsales.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Graphic-two-1-272x170-3.jpg 272w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 643px) 100vw, 643px\" \/><figcaption>You can enable or disable the Back Up Automatically feature.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>This may take a while. Plus, there\u2019s also no interface to tell you if the local files are deleted. This means you can only try to access the backup with your external drive disconnected to check their status.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once the local snapshots are deleted, turn on Back Up Automatically again. Time Machine \u201cremembers\u201d your backup disks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-related-topics\">Related topics:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><a
