Question

An important file disappeared while I was working on it...


SmartLogix

I was working on my project called 'SAVER' and it disappeared. 

I am the owner of the file. I looked everywhere: Drafts, Deleted, Recent, and there’s no trace of it. The name of the document is 'SAVER'." When I try to access the link, I only see this message: Prototype not found.

PROTO LINK: https://www.figma.com/proto/CaJCUuXfeYl5ZKVjtMSf5m/SAVER?node-id=154-494&t=3wdKiocWQMpaVtOb-0&scaling=min-zoom&content-scaling=fixed&page-id=0%3A1&starting-point-node-id=244%3A2858&show-proto-sidebar=1&hide-ui=1

Hi ​@SmartLogix — thanks for reaching out, and I’m really sorry to hear about the trouble locating your file.

 

While we can’t access account-specific details here in the public forum, I can see that there’s already an open case with our Product Support team. I recommend keeping an eye on the inbox tied to your Figma account — a Support Specialist is actively looking into this and will follow up with next steps.

 

Hopefully that helps get things moving in the right direction! Feel free to check back in here if anything else comes up.

Please, try searching using this URL. The file disappeared right in front of my eyes. I really enjoy using Figma, but this incident definitely scares me because it could happen with other important documents.

 

Check this URL instead:

@Tom Reem Where o how can I pay for express or VIP support here? From what I can see, Figma’s support is extremely slow, and the situation I’m in as a customer (who pays nearly $90 a month for my account) has me feeling desperate.

I opened Request #1381601 regarding a critical issue: your system caused one of my projects to disappear — the most important one I’m working on right now. The only response I received was an email suggesting I check the trash folder to recover it. Frankly, that reply felt automated and dismissive, and I’m beginning to question whether anyone has truly looked into the issue.

I urgently need a real person to take ownership of this request, initiate a system-level investigation (file history, logs, or similar), and confirm whether my project still exists. From the user side, it has completely vanished.

If necessary, I’m even willing to pay for priority support. This bug is putting an important client relationship at risk, and I really can’t afford any more delays.
