My Question or Issue

I deleted two folders from my library, which deleted all of the playlists inside them. I deleted probably about 200 playlists, i want to recover the first folder i deleted but not the other. (both folders started with an A, ik dumb move i clicked are you sure and everything)  Now, on my account page under account after selecting "recover playlists" it shows the 100 most recently deleted playlists; however the playlists i want to restore are beyond 100 deletions ago and do not fit on the web page and wont let me go to a page two to see more playlists that have been deleted in the past 90 days. Any way to get around the web page limitations? or tough luck... i deleted them...  kinda gotta lie in the bed i made. thanks for any help 🙂

Hey @milleynate thanks for asking in the Community!

 

Once your playlists are deleted they are available in your recover section on your account page only if they are created by you. If you get rid of any saved item then you would require to find them again to save in your library.

 

There is a small period after you delete a saved item when you can press undo (CTRL + Z on Windows) to reverse your last changes.

However, if the page is not showing you more items you can try contacting Spotify Support through live chat support which is available here. Please mention as many details as possible. You can try asking them if it is possible to restore your account to an earlier version that might recover your playlists before you delete them. 

 

Please note that I cannot confirm if this is possible, you have to ask them to confirm. And if it is possible it will restore an earlier version meaning all your actions after that point in time will be discarded.

 

I hope that helps. Let me know if you need anything else.
