PC How does the Cloud work?

[TerrariaGeek401]

So, I want to install a big game on my computer, but it's almost out of space, and I was wondering about the 'Move to Cloud' option in the game. I was hoping that I could move my characters and worlds to the cloud, then Uninstall Terraria to get more space, and then when I want Terraria back, I can install it and still have all my stuff. Does this work?

I've never tried cloud storage on PC but the mobile equivalent has resulted in my losing progress over and over.

Have you tried analyzing your hard drive/SSD(s) to see what's taking up the most space? Might be there's a lot of junk you don't need.

For Windows, try the free app WinDirStat: WinDirStat - Windows Directory Statistics
On my Mac I use DaisyDisk, which is similar but costs $10. DaisyDisk, the most popular disk analyzer for Mac
