# Is it possible to recover an expired transfer?

Once a file transfer has expired, the file(s) are permanently deleted and technically not recoverable.

We do not retain files or practice hidden file retention when a transfer has expired, so there is no point in contacting support to recover files from a transfer that has already expired.
