Windows 10: Gmail inbox now empty - how can move email back to inbox

I have a Gmail account, but this is usually accessed through Outlook 2016. Since I'd been having serious problems with the synchronization, I blindly followed the advice given by RyanV_408 (https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/...?auth=1&page=2) and ended up with no subfolders, and all my inbox mail now in a folder named '\Inbox'.These changes were carried through to my Gmail account (don't know how!!).

I am now reinstalling Outlook, but before setting it up properly, would like to get things 'back to normal' with my Gmail account. How can I move the content of the '\Inbox' folder to 'Inbox'? I've tried 'Select All' and then 'Move To...' but this is denied. I have renamed '\Inbox' to 'Received', but this makes no difference. All this moving and renaming has also resulted in my not being able to receive email on my mobile!!

Many thanks to whoever can lend a hand...

Displaying Gmail inbox interface


How should I switch what the Inbox displays between views with tabs and no-tabs with all incoming emails shown in one list?

 

Read emails in Gmail Inbox disappear, but showing in All Mail.


So this just started today (like an hour ago). When I get an email in Gmail it shows in my Inbox. If I open it to read it, and then close it, it still shows in my Inbox, but if I refresh then it disappears. Only unread emails show. If I check All Mail it shows the read emails, and shows the tag "Inbox", so they are still there, but just not visible. If I check them as unread in the All Mail view they show again in Inbox, but again, once read, they disappear. It's happening in both Chrome and Firefox. Anyone else having this issue?

 

Windows 10 Mail App deleting emails in my Gmail Inbox


When I delete an email received in my Win 10 Mail App inbox, the same email is also deleted in my Gmail inbox, automatically. I would like to prevent this. Emails deleted from my Mail App should be left behind in my Gmail inbox. Could I prevent this deletion from happening by changing an IMAP Access setting in my Gmail settings?

I attach two pictures. In the one, you can see how my Win 10 Mail App was configured by Windows when I added my Gmail account. In the other picture, you can see what I consider changing in my IMAP settings at GMail. I have no idea if this will help and whether I should make this change. I am fairly computer-illiterate.

Could somebody advise me please?
