Immediately After Upload ~ Free Download Period (6 to 48 hours)

• The duration of the free download period without logging in depends entirely on the file size.
• 10GB or less: Free downloads are available for 48 hours after upload.
• 10GB to 20GB: Free downloads are available for 12 hours after upload.
• 20GB or more: Free downloads are available for 6 hours after upload.

After Free Download Expires ~ Before 90 Hours (Deletion Pending State) [1, 2]

• Free downloads expire once the specified time limit passes, but the file is not deleted from the server right away.
• During this buffer window, recipients can still download the file if they choose to purchase a small, low-cost paid pass. [1]

90 Hours After Upload (Final Permanent Deletion) ⚠️ [1, 2]

• Exactly 90 hours after the initial upload, the file is permanently purged from the server unless a paid extension is purchased.
• Because File.kiwi does not store original copies or encryption keys on its own, it is impossible to recover files once deleted. [1, 2, 3]

💡 Summary If you are sharing everyday files like low-capacity source codes, text documents, or light compressed zip archives (under 10GB), recipients can comfortably download them for free for two days (48 hours). The files will disappear completely from the server after about 4 days (90 hours). [1, 2]
