The installed apps are automatically moving to the SD card, which takes too much time for proper installation. How can I revert them back to internal storage?"

Is there any other option to automatically revert it, so that upcoming installations will default to internal storage?

1. Prevent new apps from moving to the SD card:
Check and modify the default download location:
Some devices have a setting to control the default download location for apps, including the option to download to the internal storage or the SD card.
Disable moving to SD card for individual apps:
You can generally prevent apps from moving to the SD card by going to the app's settings and disabling the "Move to SD card" option if available.
2. Move apps already on the SD card back to internal storage:
Access app storage settings:
Go to your phone's settings, then navigate to "Apps" or "App Info," and select the app you want to move.
Find the storage option:
Look for a "Storage" or "Storage & cache" option within the app's settings.
Move the app:
If the app allows it, there should be an option to "Change" or "Move" the app's storage location. Select "Internal storage" and then "Move".
