Freeing up space · One-tap clean-up (Run Tuhi)

What does "Never delete personal files — only move them" do?

Short answer: It makes Storage Studio skip every rule that would delete your files, so your data is only ever moved. Cache cleanup still runs because caches rebuild. Find it in Preferences → Rules → Global overrides.

It's a global safety switch that tells Storage Studio to skip every rule that would delete your files, so your own data is only ever moved, never removed. App-cache cleanup still runs, because caches are rebuilt automatically and aren't personal files.

To turn it on:

  1. Open Preferences and go to Rules.
  2. Under Global overrides, switch on Never delete personal files — only move them.

When the switch holds something back during a Run Tuhi clean-up, the summary may mention how much more could have been cleared if you allowed it — it's information, not a nudge you have to act on. See is Run Tuhi safe.
