# How do I remove a cloud account from Storage Studio?

Open **Cloud Accounts**, select the account, and click **Remove**. Storage Studio first checks whether any scheduled or one-off transfers use it; if they do, it lists them and offers to remove the account and those transfers together, so nothing is left pointing at an account that's gone.

Removing only disconnects Storage Studio. Your files stay in the cloud, untouched, and you can add the account again later. The account's stored secret is deleted from your Mac in the same step. See [what removing deletes](https://storagestudio.us/faq/cloud-accounts/what-does-removing-an-account-delete).
