Where Does Polaris Office Store Documents?

Where Polaris Office keeps documents on desktop and mobile, plus cloud drive roles. Exact folders are covered below.

Last updated

Polaris splits local files from cloud drive. Documents you saved on disk live in Documents folders per device. Synced docs live in your Polaris account drive. The apps cache recent files for quick open.

Same login means same cloud docs. Exact cache names shift with Smart versus free builds. Keep online during edits so cloud versions upload. If docs vanish, check the login email first. A personal versus work account split is the usual empty drive cause with office suites. When in doubt, verify paths inside the app before trusting a remembered folder.

Does Polaris back up local files?

Yes, in Polaris cloud drive for synced files. Devices hold a working copy plus template cache. Local only files never upload alone. Copy the Documents folders over USB as well as signing in, since one side without the other restores half the library.
