Backups & restore points · Speed, progress and the first backup
Will I have to start my backup over if I restart or reinstall Storage Studio?
Short answer: No. Backups pick up where they left off even after restarting the Mac or reinstalling Storage Studio, and data already at the destination is never sent again.
No. Backups resume from where they left off even across restarting the Mac or reinstalling the app. Storage Studio doesn't re-send data the destination already has, so an interrupted first backup carries on rather than starting again.
When it next runs, it catches up on anything that changed in the meantime, too.
