Is it correct to say "files from 3 days ago" or "files of 3 days ago"?

English Language & Usage Asked by Vera Jiang on December 12, 2020

The situation may be as follows:

A computer crashed on 12 January 2020, but we need to get some files as the status on 9 January 2020.

We need the files from 3 days ago.

We need the files of 3 days ago.

Are they both correct?

One Answer

The situation you've depicted has some grammatical issues, so I can't quite grasp the context, but I will do my best. I'm assuming the situation is that a computer no longer works, and it contains data(files) that needs to be accessed?

Your answer would be: "We need to get the status files on the computer from 3 days ago."
