By creating a Google account, you gain access to many applications like Google Drive and Google Docs. These two apps give you the chance to save personal documents to Cloud so can access and manage them across all of your devices. Moreover, you can share them with others, making collaboration more engaging and easier. Google also offers these services to companies, as an integrated platform, called Google Workspace. Here, employees can share and work on documents together, by editing them simultaneously. That’s why recovering your docs if your account was deleted is mandatory. Do not hesitate to apply the below steps in case of seeing the error: This account was deleted and is no longer recoverable.

How can I recover docs if my account was deleted?

1. Restore your personal Google account

The only way to recover any data is to restore your Google account. However, there are times when solving the problem isn’t possible. If the message you’re getting is this one: Couldn’t find your Google Account. Try again, and you are sure that the address is correctly spelled, you can’t get it back. 

2. Restore your company Google account

The process can take about 24 hours. You can’t restore the account if the username has been assigned to someone else, it is used as a group email address, or you don’t have a user license. Never forget to check the files you have uploaded to your Google account, before deciding to delete it. There is a short amount of time after deletion when you can restore it and recover your lost data. After a few weeks, all documents connected to your account are permanently deleted from Google’s servers, and there is nothing to recover anymore. If you administrate the Google accounts for your company, consider checking the user’s documents before deleting it. After 20 days, the account is permanently deleted, and not even Google Workspace Support can’t help out. Have you completed the above procedures as well?
