    Your Mac is probably equipped with a SMART hard disk and it is good qu'Onyx can verify if this is active. The software then offers to verify the structure and volume as stated in the dialog, it includes closing any active application. Then click Continue. This may take several minutes. Once Onyx has done it tells you if the disk appears in good condition.

    Run the application and click the Maintenance tab and then click Reset. You can leave checked the various options. Mac Help deletes files that may cause problems during the consultation help. Index of Spotlight index removes this search tool so that it can be recreated from scratch. Viewing the contents of files removes some invisible files related to the presentation files. Database LaunchServices rebuilt the links between documents and applications, deleting unnecessary links. Click Run to run the disk cleanup. It takes several minutes to Onyx does this work but it is precious.
