Moving folders · How moving folders works
What happens to my moved folders if my trial or subscription ends?
Short answer: Nothing happens to them. Moved folders stay where they are with links in place and keep opening while the drive is connected. Only Storage Studio's own work — rules, Data Parking, transfers, Free Up Space — pauses until you re-activate.
Nothing happens to them. Everything you've already moved stays where it is, with links in place, and opens normally while the drive is connected. Storage Studio never holds files hostage.
What pauses while the licence is inactive is Storage Studio's own work: scheduled rule runs, Data Parking, cloud transfers, Free Up Space and the apps relocator. Re-activating turns it all back on where it left off.
