Freeing up space · Emergency Space
What does a caution on a row in Emergency Space mean?
Short answer: It warns you before you tick: either the folder's app is open and will need to quit first, or Storage Studio couldn't confidently identify the folder, so look inside before choosing it.
It flags something worth knowing before you tick that row:
- The app is open right now — you'll be asked to quit it before the folder can be moved or cleared.
- Storage Studio couldn't confidently identify the folder — it's never ticked for you, and the row explains why. Have a look inside before you choose it.
Neither stops you; they just make sure you aren't surprised. If an app is in the way during the run, see Move when closed.
