When you delete a file uploaded through eXtendFiles directly in your backend storage, the corresponding eXtendFiles record in NetSuite will remain. However, the hyperlinks to the file will become inaccessible as the file no longer exists in the backend storage.

If a thumbnail or preview image was generated for your file and it wasn't deleted, the hyperlink to this image may still function in your eXtendFiles record because it's stored as a separate file.

Note that deleting a file directly in your backend storage is different than deleting the eXtendFiles record in NetSuite. See Configure eXtendFiles to Remove Backend Storage File Upon eXtendFile Deletion for details on deletion behavior for eXtendFiles deleted in NetSuite.
