Thanks for joining us here annudawn245!

If the account has already been closed due to inactivity, then I'm afraid there isn't much we can do regarding restoring your files.

The account would need to have an action within it just once every 12 months to be kept active. You can find out more about this here.

Sorry that I can't be of much help with this, but do let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks!
