I can't find a file I deleted from my account in the deleted files page. How can I restore it?

Hello , I accidentally deleted a big file yesterday and some other files. I wanted to restore the file , but it is not listed in the "Restore deleted files" section. How can I manage to get back those files?

    Hey nad2275 - thanks for posting on our Community and sorry to hear you're having issues with this.

     

    Are you able to find and restore the file via the events page instead of the deleted files page?

     

    Let us know and we'll take it from there.
