Windows 10: Restoring items deleted from screenshot folder in February

Hi there, due to some safety concerns I wanted to see if it was possible to recover some screenshots which were deleted from my screenshots folder on February 17th 2021. They were also deleted from onedrive and aren't in the recycle bin unsurprisingly given the time since deletion. I've read that these items are stored for a maximum of 93 days and can be stored in something called a secondary recycle bin, I'm not sure if that is applicable to me. I've also read it may only be available for microsoft 365 members, I believe I was a microsoft 365 member at the time as I had office365 insta

Trouble deleting a folder

Thanks for the suggestion but it says "delete folder failed for E:\....." for each folder I try.

*Confused

Will I be forever stuck with these unnecessary folders? *Oh Well hwell:

 

Recovering a deleted email from the deleted items folder or Recycle Bin

Thank you for the suggestion. The only message I find at the bottom of the message list in the deleted items folder is "To find older messages, use Search". My search did not work.

Thanks.

 

Outlook 2007 Deleted items

Hi there

@Take a guess


on IMAP if you set in the config operations for each account you have the problems with -- Root Folder -->INBOX there should then be a deleted items folder. Restart outlook and when you delete items they should then go to the deleted items folder. Use Empty folder to purge the email.


Outlook 2007 and 2010 will work the same

Step 1 in account config -->change-->advanced choose the last tab and then enter INBOX (in English should be Root Folder in the menu)





Step 2 now do New folder on tab 3 and create Deleted Items on the server for the account





Step 3 move mouse to newly created folder for deleted items - your deleted items should now go into that folder after you restart Outlook. You might have to move the underlined mail etc first and then purge.
