Getting started · First launch and Full Disk Access
Why doesn't Storage Studio ask me to register when I reinstall it?
Short answer: The free trial is tied to the Mac, so a reinstall recognises it and skips registration. You continue with any days left, or see your options to choose a plan or activate a licence if it has ended.
If this Mac has already used a Storage Studio trial, there's nothing to fill in — the app recognises it, says you're all set, and carries on. The trial is tied to the Mac, so reinstalling the app doesn't start a new one.
What that means for you:
- If your trial is still running, you simply continue with the days you had left.
- If it has ended, the app shows your options — choose a plan, extend by verifying an email where offered, or activate a licence or code you already have.
