Does Prepare change my original files?

1 min readUpdated 2 Nov 2026

Short answer

No. Prepare makes a new copy, saved in your LiveGoLive folder. Your original files are never changed, moved or deleted.

Where copies go

Prepared copies you keep go to one LiveGoLive folder you can open at any time. Tick Upload to Media library when done before you choose Prepare to send them straight to your Media library.

Working files

LiveGoLive Desktop’s own working files clean themselves up, within a space limit you set in its settings.
