Can I recover permanently deleted files?

Accidentally selected the option to permanently delete photos. Is there anything I can do to get them back

  • Hi Coolbean123, thanks for messaging the Community.

     

    Unfortunately, if the images were permanently deleted from the site, then it wouldn't be possible to recover them.

     

    I'm sorry I can't be more helpful on this matter.
