Big Sur (v11.1) Update Installation File Location?

[Clausewitz]

Hi,

Does anyone know where the update or partially downloaded update files/installation of Big Sur are located. I have been trying to download v11.1 but my attempts have been disrupted a few times. Prior to attempting to update I had 200GB of storage space on my M1 MBP but all of a sudden it is down to 191GB.

I have looked into Library --> Update folder. There is nothing there.

Thanks

That is about the size of one download of the installer.

Question still stands. Where is the partially downloaded update file? Even when I quit downloading the update file it doesn't free up my storage space. In fact, I seem to losing storage space quickly. The installer is of little more then 4GB & I have lost 12 to 13 GB now.

Check ~/Content/downloads. This is where some Terminal downloads end up.
