Everything goes to the Trash
Changed your mind? Put Back in the Finder. With the Full Unlock you can pick “Delete”.
Drop the renders.
Keep the edit.
Clears from your Final Cut Pro libraries what can be rebuilt.
Every project leaves render files, analysis data, proxies and optimized media in the library: tens of gigabytes Final Cut can recreate. Library Cleaner clears them and leaves the edit as it is.
From folder to Trash.
Four folders. One never comes back.
Inside every library, Final Cut keeps files it can recreate when needed.
Render Files
The timeline’s render previews.
Rebuilt
Analysis Files
Analysis data for clips and audio.
Rebuilt
Transcoded Media
Proxy and optimized media.
Rebuilt
Original Media
The files copied into the library: without them, clips go offline. Never included by default, you confirm by typing the library name. Links to external media are never touched.
Never rebuilt
It always asks first.
Final Cut closed
With Final Cut Pro open it won’t start. You see the status live.
Library unchanged
If it changed after the analysis, it stops and asks you to scan again.
Contents only
The folders stay, and so do the database and your projects.
Free for renders.
The Full Unlock is a small contribution to the project.

Before you try it
How do I get back the files I cleaned?
Open the Trash, select the files and choose “Put Back”: they return to their place in the library. Do it with Final Cut Pro closed.
Why wasn’t the space freed?
The files are in the Trash: the space is freed when you empty it. With the Full Unlock, “Delete” frees it at once.
Does it work with libraries on a NAS?
Yes, with the Full Unlock. Network drives have no Trash, so there files are deleted permanently, after a confirmation.
What happens if I remove Original Media?
Final Cut Pro doesn’t recreate them: clips that use them go offline. Remove them only if you have another copy of the footage.
Can I try it without one of my libraries?
Yes: download the demo library and choose its folder in the app.
Every other answer is on the support page.
Free up space, then edit.
