Mac OS is reporting bad free space I have a MacBook Pro since 2014 and I haven't had any problem in these months. But today I realized that the free space info that gives Mac is wrong. I add two captures, one from the hard disk info, and the second from the 'About this Mac' window.





As you can see, I have set my Mac to Spanish language; hope you have no problem to understand it ;)
Also, in the second capture, it says there are about 312 GB of apps, when there is no such amount of apps in my laptop. Even more, if you add 312 + the free space Mac says there is (about 350 GB), it results more than 500GB!

Why is happening this? Is there a bad update from Mac that is causing this?

Thank you for your replies!
The Storage tab of About This Mac is based on Spotlight, so try reindexing the HD:
