# Pausing/Resuming

### Pausing and Resuming Transfer Jobs

Transfer jobs in Movebot can be safely **paused and resumed at any time**, giving you full control over the migration process.

***

#### How to Pause and Resume a Job

* To **pause** a job that is currently running, click **Cancel/Pause Migration** in the job menu.
* To **resume**, open the same job and click **Resume Job / Rerun Failures**.

When resumed, Movebot will **pick up where it left off**.

You can pause and resume migrations as often as needed without affecting already transferred data.

***

#### ⚠️ Keep in Mind

If you click **Start Full Migration, Start Delta Migration,** or **Start Data Only Migration** instead of \
**Resume Last Action / Rerun Failures**, the job will **start from scratch**, requiring a re-scan of all previously scanned data. 

Always use **Resume Last Action / Rerun Failures** to avoid unnecessary duplication and preserve your job's progress.
