Getting started · Downloading and installing

Can I delete the Storage Studio disk image after installing?

Short answer: Yes. After Storage Studio is in Applications and opens, eject the installer and move the .dmg from Downloads to the Trash — updates come with a fresh download.

Yes. Once Storage Studio is in your Applications folder and opens, the disk image (the .dmg file) isn't needed any more.

  1. Eject the mounted installer — click the eject icon next to it in Finder's sidebar.
  2. Move the .dmg file from your Downloads folder to the Trash.

For future updates you'll download a fresh disk image, so there's no reason to keep the old one.
