BlueHarvest: Prevent DS_Store and .Trash files littering your Mac
Screenshots
BlueHarvest is an excellent preference pane-based tool that helps you get rid of unwanted DS_Store and .Trash files that are left behind after transfers between your Mac and a PC. If you frequently transfer files between a Mac and PC, you may have noticed these annoying files cluttering your hard drive. While they don't take up any space on your machine, they serve no purpose and can even affect how your Mac operates.
BlueHarvest offers two viewing modes: Simple and Advanced. In Simple mode, you can easily select which drive you want to keep clean, whether it's the Startup Disk, Non Mac Disk, or File Servers. This mode is suitable for most general users and requires no further action on your part. The Advanced preference view is designed for more experienced users who are connected to multiple drives or servers. It allows you to specify in detail which areas you want to keep clean.
One of the pros of BlueHarvest is that it installs discreetly as a preference pane, ensuring it doesn't interfere with your workflow. Another advantage is the ability to choose between Simple and Advanced modes, providing flexibility for users with different needs.
The only downside of BlueHarvest is that it is only necessary for those who frequently transfer files between Macs and PCs. If you don't find yourself in this situation often, you may not benefit from this software.
Overall, BlueHarvest is a reliable and efficient tool for keeping your Mac clean from unwanted DS_Store and .Trash files. It simplifies the process and ensures that these files are gone for good, without requiring any manual intervention on your part.
