How do I "rescan all disks and volumes" in Disk Utility on mac os Mojave? My disk got full. Then I make 25GB empty space but according to Disk Utility, it is still full.
According to df, 25GB is available.
Restarting it doesn't seem to help.

It refreshes at relaunch, doesn't need a reboot. Did you empty your trash? If yes, check System Prefs > iCloud > iCloud Drive Options… & see if Optimise Mac Storage is on. – Tetsujin Jun 29 '20 at 07:38

Yes, I did empty my trash. I don't use iCloud. – user674669 Jun 29 '20 at 08:16

OK, try thinning Time Machine snapshots - see https://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/309143/how-to-thin-your-local-time-machine-snapshots-on-macos-high-sierra – Tetsujin Jun 29 '20 at 08:21

Today, disk utility is showing correct disk usage. It's buggy. – user674669 Jun 30 '20 at 06:51

@Tetsujin, thanks for the link. I tried the command: $ tmutil listlocalsnapshots / - it shows no snapshots. – user674669 Jun 30 '20 at 06:52
