iCloud removed a 800MB Photoshop file while I was working on it today, and I had to download it again (luckily I had saved my work, but the file was still open)

iCloud removed a 800MB Photoshop file while I was working on it today, and I had to download it again (luckily I had saved my work, but the file was still open).
I didn't expect that. I guess if it's open but not modified it isn't locked?
These things are not that intuitive, just yet.
- tqkxzugoaupvwqr 10y agoAre you running out of local disk space by any chance? macOS has a feature where files stored in iCloud are removed from the local computer if disk space is getting low. You can change the setting in System Preferences > iCloud > iCloud Drive Options. Uncheck “Optimize Mac Storage”.
- nkkollaw 10y agoYes. That's the featured that caused the file to be removed. It's just that I didn't expect macOS to remove a file while it was open.
