    When files are deleted from FTP are they deleted PERMANENTLY?

    Or can they be restored in any way?

    Let me know please.

    Thanks.

    YES. And maybe on the server side I think it can be recovered.

    Pretty sure that when you delete using ftp they are gone.

    Your host may have a backup if you have done something stupid. :)

    Contact your hosting provider and ask them. I'm sure they will have a better answer.
