    The thing is that when you paste into most other MS SW, you can choose to paste as Plain Text only. But that option does not exist when you paste into the Mail App.

    As I said; I have tried all that, but thanks anyway. My main issue is that the Disc Cleanup Tool shows 4Gb of wasted space named "Compressed OS Disc" which I have found no way to delete (Clean).

    How to untag the "Compress this drive to save disk space" ?
