Downloaded Google updates on Mac: what it is and whether you can delete it
~/Library/Application Support/Google/GoogleUpdater/crx_cache
Yes, you can delete it without losing anything
It recreates itself: the tool that created it makes it again when needed. At most, the next time takes a little longer.
What it is
Packages the Chrome updater already installed.
How to free the space
By emptying the folder's contents (the folder stays).
DiskSpace AI finds it for you
It tells you how much it takes on your Mac, what it is and whether you can delete it. It only selects what recreates itself, and your files are kept 7 days in case you change your mind.
