Hey, so basically. I realsized I included something in a zip file by mistake when uploading the file. so I went to go ahead and toggle the visibility back to private bc yk this was a first release of one of my other mods and I didnt wanna include this file. so yeah I reuploaded the file and now it says 

This file is scheduled for deletion. This file will be deleted by the system on 10/27/23 01:36 AM. which I didnt really agree on. any way this can be stopped? its not letting me do anything. Please help

Nvm, it was just a glitch. its fixed now. this can be closed sorry.

Hey Venoxity,

 

I'm just realising this isn't really documented anywhere, so this post will be slightly longer for a full explanation.

 

When a file is hidden, a deletion timer of 2 weeks is automatically set. This was done as we had an extensive amount of hidden files in the catalogue and this space was never reclaimed (hidden for all sorts of reasons, but usually due to a credits/permission issue by staff).

 

This timer can be removed simply by unhiding the file - if you hid it yourself you can simply unhide it. If it's hidden by staff, a staff unhide will also remove the timer.

 

We can also remove or extend this timer for various reasons on request, for example in the past we have removed the timer as an author wanted time to fix their submission.
