Really old deleted files

Is there anyway, even by payment, to receive all the deleted files you have ever deleted.
It can go back to *2 years…

Thanks

    Hi lievenvdm, let's jump right into this! 

     

    I'm afraid the answer to that is: no.

     

    Even if you were to pay for a subscription, the version history of the files isn't retroactive. 

     

    I hope this helps!

    Hi Megan,

    Aw that’s a shame.
    Well, if nothing can be done about it I’ll just let it slide…
    I thought internet was forever haha
