Office20 16 Mac edition consists of five components: Word, Excel, powerpoint, Outlook and OneNote. But unfortunately, there are many duplicate files in these five apps (for example, the same font is saved in different apps). Why not save one in an app and then call other Office programs through "shortcuts"? Then there is a script written by a great god on the Internet, which can delete redundant files in four other apps except Word and let them call the same files of Word through softlink (which can be understood as shortcut/text double). This can save 3.7G hard disk space on our Mac.

Note: The three versions of Office20 16 tested by this method are V 15. 16, V 15. 17 and V 15. 18 respectively. Use may be risky and users need to pay attention. Read the running code carefully before running. Make sure that all five applications of Office20 16 on the Mac are the same version.

Open the terminal (launchpad-other-terminal), copy the command starting with sudo to the terminal (copy the command to ""here ""sudobash-c "curl-s/best/officethinner wxhlbl.com/master/OfficeThinner.sh | bash" "), and enter your Mac password (usually your boot password). Of course, after every update of Office20 16 on Mac, the occupied size of Office20 16 will be restored, so if you want to slim down Office20 16 after every update, you need to run this terminal command once.
