# Why does Tuhi say automatic actions are paused?

It means Storage Studio's automatic work is switched off or paused right now, so nothing runs on a schedule — Tuhi only does things when you ask, and tidy-ups only run when you tap **Run Tuhi**.

If that's what you want, there's nothing to do. To turn automation back on, open **More (•••) → Automatic Moves** and switch it on; Tuhi will then tell you roughly when the next automatic tidy-up is due.
