Local file storage issues often cause files to disappear after restarts when data is saved to tmp/ or caches directories that the system purges. Diagnosing the file's location, protection level, and backup status determines why files vanish and how to fix persistence.

Diagnose iOS backup bloat by checking the backup status and storage location of local files. The diagnostic workflow inspects whether files are incorrectly included in backups and provides remediation steps to exclude unnecessary data and reduce storage size.

Troubleshooting locked file access requires checking the file state and protection level to identify access restrictions. The diagnostic workflow specifies a repeatable process to verify storage health and generate a remediation plan for inaccessible files.

Checking backup exclusion status involves running a diagnostic workflow on the sample file URL to verify its storage location and backup flags. This process identifies whether user data lives in Documents, is excluded from backup, or requires migration fixes.

Yes, the diagnostic workflow is applicable to apps encountering missing files in tmp/ or caches purges. It checks the storage location, protection level, and file state to determine why data is missing and provides guardrails for remediation.

Diagnosing storage without checking protection levels limits the ability to identify why files become inaccessible. The diagnostic workflow requires verifying location, protection, backup status, and file state to accurately pinpoint root causes and provide remediation steps.
