DS-160 30 days

[Elzmd 7]

Over a month ago I started the DS-160 after getting the letter from the embassy, but could not complete it as I was waiting on some other information. I figured I'd wait to do my medical and get back to it, but I realise now it clears it/deletes it (I think) after 30 days and that is likely why my ID isn't working. I don't want to mess anything up, I didn't submit anything and didn't get more than 4 pages in, should I restart a new application instead now? Is that alright to do?

Yes you can just go ahead and fill a new one. It takes quite some time to complete as you may have noticed so don’t rush it and complete it at your pace.   Good luck with everything

What ID and where is it not working? Can you explain that problem? Are you trying to log in to the appointment scheduling website? Make sure you are on this one for Immigrants, not the

Scroll down past the pink section. It should be the green page for Immigrants, not the blue page for Nonimmigrants.

It's this one, it says I need to fill out the DS-160 on here. I started it (via this site) https://ceac.state.gov/genniv/ - But it's been over 30 days and I think that's why I cannot retrieve my application ID (it states 'no matching data found'). I have not yet booked my Interview because I wanted to ensure the medical went smoothly first (completed it today, no issues) and I cannot finish the courier sign up to book an interview without finishing the DS-160.
