Recover Deleted Items AFTER Emptied from Deleted Items Folder

Microsoft Outlook, when used with a Microsoft Exchange Server account, enables you to recover some deleted items, even after the Deleted Items folder is emptied.

Use these steps to attempt to recover items deleted from the Deleted Items folder:

1. On Folder tab, click Recover Deleted Items.
2. Select an item or group of items then click Recover Selected Items button.
   Tip To select multiple items, press CTRL as you click each item.
3. Recovered items are restored to the folder from which they were deleted.

Note: The Exchange administrator specifies the retention time for deleted items. After this time elapses, deleted items cannot be restored.
