Full Disk Access for Disk Aid

Learn why Disk Aid needs Full Disk Access and how to grant it.

Why Full Disk Access is Needed

Due to security changes introduced in macOS Mojave and later, Disk Aid needs your permission to access some parts of your drive. Without Full Disk Access, certain areas of your Mac will not be scanned, leading to incomplete results.

Granting Full Disk Access is optional but strongly recommended for the most thorough scans across all of Disk Aid's tools.

For step-by-step instructions on granting Full Disk Access, see our Full Disk Access guide.
