I want to have some files stored locally and some files stored on iCloud.
I started making videos and since they take up a lot of space I wanted to have the file with my videos kept only on my Mac so that it doesn’t take up all my iCloud space. I turned off desktop and documents so now all my documents are in the cloud. Is it possible to have some files stored locally and everything else on the cloud? Will I have to manually move all the files i want in the cloud? Also, if I ever turn desktop and documents back on will things duplicate? For example: I have a school folder currently on iCloud, if I make another one since now everything is local, will there be two school folders? Also, if I turn it back on right now what will happen? Will it sync with the local folders with nothing in them and remove all my files that are now only in the cloud ?
