Recovering A File That Dissapeared

My file has disappeared from my account, (not in recent, history, or projects). I was the only owner and nobody else had access to it. I see the file in my notifications, but it says it has been moved or deleted, but is not in my recent or my trash.

    Hey ​@MJenkins33, thanks for joining us here in Figma Forum. I’m sorry you’ve lost access to your file.

    I located your existing ticket: 2239423, and our Customer Support team is reviewing your request. They can investigate the file links to confirm the file’s status and whether recovery is possible.

    In the meantime, there are two more places to check: the Folders tab in Trash, in case the file was inside a deleted folder, and Trash for each team you belong to, since each team has its own. This guide covers those possibilities: Delete and restore files → View and manage files in the trash.

    I hope this helps move things forward. Please continue with Customer Support through your existing ticket so they can review specifics within your account. 🙏🏻

    Would a paid account be able to tell me who created the file and a timeline of who has access and when access changes occurred? I have had multiple tickets open with no reply. Very frustrating CS.
