To recover a deleted folder, just drag-and-drop its name from within Deleted Items onto your mailbox name (or, drag it onto an existing folder so as to make it a sub-folder of that folder). In our example, Deleted Items contains one deleted folder, gartner, containing one unread message: (Note by the way that any number to the right of the Deleted Items name (377 in our example) is the number of unread messages in the folder, not the total number of items)Ĭlick on the arrowhead (which will change appearance) to see the sub-folders within Deleted Items. If the Deleted Items folder contains sub-folders, it will be shown with an arrowhead pointing to its name in the folder list, like this: Folders are not listed with emails in the Deleted Items list, but instead become sub-folders within Deleted Items in the Navigation pane on the left. If you have deleted a folder (together with any emails it contains), it's shown differently in the Deleted Items folder. The most commonly used icons are: IconĪ more complete list of icons can be seen at You can sort the list of Deleted Items by type, by clicking on the Sort by: Icon column header (the label appears when you float the mouse pointer over it), as shown below:Ĭlick the icon again to sort in the reverse order. Each item will be marked with an icon that identifies what type of item it is - except for folders: if you want to recover a deleted folder, see the Finding Deleted Folders section further below. When opened (click on the Deleted Items name), the Deleted Items folder may list a lot of items. If you are recovering a deleted Contact, open the Contacts folder in the list, then click on the required contact folder, then click OK. Note that you should only do this with the same type of item in one operation that is, you shouldn't move emails and contacts at the same time - you'd need to do the emails first, then the calendar items, and so on. Then, right click on any of the selected items and use the Move To Folder function as before. Or, hold down the CTRL key while you click on several selected items - this selects all the items you click. If you want to 'un-delete' several items at a time, click on the first item, then hold down the SHIFT key while you click on the last of the required items - this selects all the items in the range.
in the drop-down menu, then select the required folder from the list and then click on OK.
If you want to 'un-delete' an item in the Deleted Items folder, just open the Deleted Items folder (in Outlook) and then: Recovering items from the Deleted Items folder

When you delete items such as emails, calendar entries and contacts in Outlook, they are moved to your Deleted Items folder, but can be recovered quickly from there if necessary - see Recovering items from the Deleted Items folder below.
