Where your local data lives

When work runs on your machine, some of it lives on your machine: Studio project files, local blobs, and the runtime's own working data.

Moving it

You can relocate the storage root — onto a larger disk, or out of a synced folder that should not be syncing a database.

1. Open device storage settings in the desktop app.
2. Choose the new location.
3. Let it move and confirm it reports the new root.

You're done when the app reports the new root and work still runs.

Relocating requires the device-management capability, because it moves where a workspace's local data physically sits — not something a member should do to someone else's machine.

Gotchas

• Do not point local storage at a cloud-synced folder. A sync client rewriting database files underneath a running process corrupts them. This is the single most common way to damage a local install.
• Moving storage does not move your workspace. Central data stays central.
