By nature, ScreenPal files are very large; if you have many of them, you can easily fill up disk or cloud storage space unnecessarily. Fortunately, ScreenPal has a feature that allows you to export compressed archive files, which you can save in your UVM OneDrive cloud storage (or on an external hard drive), then delete the large files from ScreenPal. If you ever need to edit one of these videos, you’ll simply import the compressed file back into ScreenPal.<\/p>\n \t\t
