Help me deleted file

[BluebayStudios]

i need to recover a deleted html file and i cant find the repl history pls help

[CoderElijah]

Welcome to Ask! Replit’s got you covered on this one. Simply create a new file with the EXACT same name as the one you deleted and viola! your old file is back.

[BluebayStudios]

I’ve done that, the file I deleted was index.HTML

[NateDhaliwal]

Hey @BluebayStudios !
Does the code appear?

[BluebayStudios]

No, i accidentó y deleted the wrong index.html

[NateDhaliwal]

You had 2 index.html files?

[BluebayStudios]

Accidentally, sorry.

[BluebayStudios]

I had one in a separate folder

[NateDhaliwal]

Soo… you deleted the one in the folder?

[BluebayStudios]

Both I think. But I just wanted to delete the one in the folder. I’ll check.

[BluebayStudios]

Yup. Both files are deleted. I need to find a way to access the repo history.

[NateDhaliwal]

History is only for the code of the file.
Try this:

1. Create a index.html outside of a folder.
2. There should be code.
3. Go to the aforementioned folder.
4. Create a index.html in the folder.
5. There should be code in that one.
6. Delete the index.html in the folder.
   Done!
   If that doesn’t work, please tell us!

[BluebayStudios]

Nope doesn’t work.

I also created one in the “games” folder. Nothing shows up.

[NateDhaliwal]

Could you delete the file and make a new one with the ‘I’ lowercase?

[Firepup650]

Try making an index.html file, not an Index.html file, since Replit uses linux, and linux files are case-sensitive.

Thank you so Much! You guys are a lifesaver!
