How to recover deleted emails in Outlook 2019/2016/2013?

When you permanently delete items from Outlook, the data isn't actually gone for good. Microsoft Outlook keeps those emails around in other locations. They're just hidden, at least for a few weeks or longer. So, you do have a chance to recover permanently deleted emails in Outlook. Follow along with the detailed steps below.

Step 1: Log in to your Microsoft Outlook account, go to the email folder list, and click on “Deleted Items.”

Note: If you see the Junk E-mail folder instead of the Deleted Items folder, your account doesn't allow you to recover items that aren't in the Deleted Items folder.

Step 2: Go to the Home screen, and then click Recover Items Deleted from Server.

Note: If you don't see Restore items from server, it means that your account doesn't support restoring items that aren't in the Deleted Items folder.

Step 3: Microsoft will then recover the permanently deleted messages from the Exchange server and list them for you. Select the items you want to restore, click on Restore Selected Items, and then click on OK.

When you recover deleted emails from the Trash folder, they move back to the Trash folder. You can find them there and then move them to your Inbox or another folder.

How to Use Email Recovery Software to Retrieve Permanently Deleted Outlook Emails

Outlook employs two types of data files: .pst and .ost. The Universal Data Recovery Wizard supports recovery of both PST and OST files. By locating these file formats in the scan results, you can quickly restore deleted emails from your local disk, even those removed permanently from the PST/OST files.

Aside from email recovery, this data recovery tool is also great for photo recovery, video and audio recovery, Word document recovery (as well as Excel and PPT), and the retrieval of other files lost due to accidental deletion, hard drive failure/formatted, OS crash, or virus attack.

Step 1: Select the drive or partition where your lost email files were located, and then click on “Scan”.

Step 2: The software will immediately start the scanning process. Wait for the scan to finish. To quickly locate email files, click on 'Other' in the left panel. Then look for PST files or Outlook files in the list of file types.

Step 3: Select the email file you want to recover and click “Recover.” Save the file to a location other than its original one.

2. In the Navigation Pane, drag email messages, contacts, and other folders from the .pst file to an existing Outlook folder.
