Old account closed due to inactivity. What can I do?
How do I reopen my account after it got closed? I have one registered with my Yahoo account and it got closed on May 2nd and I want to reopen it so I can move my files to another account, This account is one I just made to post this.

More than likely, no. Once an account has been deleted, it's gone. You can try asking Support but they may not be able to assist you.

You need to contact them directly, as described in the responses above your own.

Unfortunately, once an account is deleted, neither the account nor the files within it can be recovered.
