Is there a way to recover an adobe XD file from a prototype link?

I have an active preview/prototype link for an old file that I was working on, but I have lost the original working file.

A lot of time and effort went into creating it. Obviously for the prototype link to exist and function, all of the necessary images, links and other files must exist somewhere. Is there a way to download them?

The file is not stored on the cloud, but the the link is hosted in my account. I'm looking to recover the working file.

Thanks in advance!

Unfortunately, no. When you create a shared prototype, you're effectively generating a prototype, which is a completely different document type than the original document.

It is very frustrating to lose hours of work because the Abobe Cloud connection usually has a problem.
Please, think of a solution so that the user is notified and can save the file on the computer's physical disk.

 

Thank's

I just lost 4 hours of work due to a XD crash. It would be smart to have a prototype type of file be compatible with the working file...
