Question electrolytic capacitors electronic devices
No. Yes. Maybe?
There are several degrading effects of electrolytes, that often act against each other, so witch one that eventually kills the capacitor is impossible to know.
A similar analogy would be car engine; If unused eventually rust and corrosion would seize up the engine. That can be counteracted by running it for a bit every once in a while. But for how long? Just starting the engine can lead to a buildup of soot and oil, something that can also result in a seized up engine. So while starting the engine prevents one issue, you instead create another. Same thing with electrolytes.
The differences in technology, usage, stress and ratings vary wildly, but electrolytes  has a finite lifetime.
The only thing that certainly kills an electrolyte faster is temperature, so store the electronics in a cool environment. In other words: Keep them out of the sun, away from ovens, and such.
(the obvious question is &quot;Can I store them in an refrigerator&quot;, but due to condensation I would advice against that)
