What does "Rules file is empty or unreachable" mean?

Short answer: Verify Setup couldn't read any rules, so scheduled moves have nothing to work from (and nothing is harmed). Review or add rules in Settings → Rules, then verify again.

Verify Setup couldn't read your rules, or found none at all. Without rules, scheduled moves have nothing to work from — nothing is moved automatically, and nothing is harmed.

Open Settings → Rules to review your rules or add new ones, then run Verify Setup again. If rules you had set up have vanished, contact support before recreating them.
