Data Transfers · Progress, pausing and history
Does closing the Data Transfers window stop my transfers?
Short answer: No. Closing the window doesn't pause or cancel anything — transfers keep running in the background while Storage Studio is running. Reopen it from More → Data Transfers… to check progress.
No. The window is just a view onto the transfers; closing it doesn't pause or cancel anything. Transfers keep running in the background as long as Storage Studio is running, and you can reopen the window any time from More → Data Transfers… to check on them.
