# How to Recover Deleted Emails in Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace

Check Deleted Items or Trash first, then use Outlook’s “Recover deleted items,” which keeps mail for a limited time after it’s emptied. Admins can sometimes restore more, and a backup can restore anything older.

- **Starting price:** From $150

- **Where:** Remote, anywhere in the U.S.

- **Quote:** Fixed price before work starts

## Try this first

- Look in Deleted Items or Trash
- In Outlook, use “Recover items recently removed from this folder”
- Search all folders, including Archive
- Check for inbox rules that delete mail
- Ask your admin about retention or backups

Common causes

- Accidentally deleted or emptied folders
- An inbox rule deleting messages
- A former employee’s mailbox removed
- A sync problem on one device

## When it’s more than a quick fix

If the mail is older than the recovery window or a whole mailbox was removed, you need an admin restore or a backup.

## Questions

### How long does Microsoft 365 keep deleted emails?

By default, items emptied from Deleted Items stay recoverable for a limited time, typically about 14 days, longer if retention is set.

### Doesn’t Microsoft or Google back up my email?

They keep it available, but they don’t keep long-term backups of what you delete. A separate backup covers that.

### Can you fix this remotely?

We restore what Microsoft or Google still holds, recover from backups, and set up retention and backups so it doesn’t happen again.
