Recovery tips and other things to note

When using the Recover Deleted Items feature in OWA, be aware of the following;

• The “Recover deleted items” page opens via a pop-up so make sure you don’t block pop-ups from your Outlook on the Web page.
• When you have the Deleted Items folder added to your Favorites list, right clicking it in the Favorites list will not show the Recover Deleted Items… command. You need to right click the Deleted Items folder in your actual Folder List of your mailbox.
• In OWA 2013 and Outlook on the Web 2016, you may not directly see all your deleted items that you can recover. In that case, simply type your own name or the letter “a” in the Search field and execute the search; This will result in pretty much all recoverable items being shown.

In OWA 2010 and later, you should also see a checkbox which you can select when you hover on a message to select multiple messages.
