Accidentally deleted a folder of important emails can I recover?

These documents were all in a subfolder in my email.  I had several other subfolders and they are all gone.  Canthey be restored.

Using Outlook Express? If so first check the Windows Recycle Bin and the Outlook Express a storage folder see if you BAK files for these records. If so, note the date of creation and to see this.

To restore a folder bak on the message store folder, first locate the message store in Windows Explorer.
 
In OE: Tools | Options | Maintenance | Store folder will reveal the location of your Outlook Express files. Note the location.
 
In Windows XP, the dbx files are by default marked as hidden. To view these files in Windows Explorer, you must enable Show hidden files and folders under start | Control Panel | Folder Options icon | Opinion, or in Windows Explorer. Tools | Folder options | View.
 
In Windows Explorer, click on the dbx to the file missing or empty file and drag it to the desktop. It can be deleted later once you have successfully restored the bak file. Minimize the message store.
 
Open OE and, if the folder is missing, create a folder with the * exact * same name as the bak file you want to restore but without the .bak. For example: If the file is Saved.bak, the new folder should be named saved. Open the new folder, and then close OE. If the folder is there, but just empty, continue to the next step.
 
First of all, check if there is a bak file already in the message. If there is, and you have removed the dbx file, go ahead and rename it in dbx.
 
If it is not already in the message, open the trash and do a right-click on the file bak for the folder in question and click on restore. Open the message store up and replace the .bak by .dbx file extension. Close the message store and open OE. Messages must be in the folder.
 
If messages are restored successfully, you can go ahead and delete the old dbx file that you moved to the desktop.
 
**************************************************************
 
If you have no bak files, you will need a recovery tool.
 
 
You may need to run in the extract from disk Mode if its normal recovery mode fails to find lost messages.

  • If the user accesses the server accidentally deleted the folder how recovery

    If the user accesses the server accidentally deleted the folder how recovery

    Hi AmjadPasha,

    If you are referring to a local file, you can check the trash.

    If you are referring to a network share, then there is very little that can be done.

    You can try using recovery software/services of third parties to retrieve the file.

    You can use your favorite search engine to search for third-party software.

    Note: The use of third-party software, including hardware drivers can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the use of third-party software can be solved. Software using third party is at your own risk.

  • Accidentally deleted the file from Lightroom. Can't re - import and catalog is still full?

    So I may have to learn something of the hard, but hope that there may be a solution. I was storing my folder structure when I went to remove a folder empty and accidentally deleted my pictures of main root folder. I do not support upward as as much as I should and are now afraid I lost all those images of the catalouge. However, as you can see on the photo my catalouge said still there 22033 photographs in, and if I click on the catalouge all my photos are indeed there with the changes attached to them they are just not in a folder structure. In addition, when I go to re-import the root folder all images are grayed out and I can't select them, even if I uncheck the import suspected duplicates box. How can I get my file structure back or I'm in trouble?

    Thank you

  • Help! Accidentally deleted music folder

    Can someone help me please?  I've been a total jerk and delete my music folder - had problems to import iTunes music and managed to remove it from the My Documents folder.

    Trouble is, I emptied the trash since then, so I can't retrieve it from there.  Is it possible to restore or replace it?

    Thanks in advance.

    Greetings,

    In Windows 7 If you created restore points, the 'previous Versions' of the files and folders can be available. All what you need to do is right-click on the file, your data was in (or the folder above) and chooseProperties -if your music was in the music library, the path to the folder in c:\users\username\My music. Click the Previous Versions tab find a restore date from before the data have disappeared, and then click Open.

    What you will see are now called snapshots.  You can copy files or folders from this window to the location you want to have restored to. be sure to close the window when you're finished, so you do not confuse shadow copies with your files/folders. If you look carefully at the address bar, you'll notice that it includes the date and time of the restore and folder names point.

    For earlier versions of Windows (and if you have no available restore points), you may need to use using a third party application. There is a free, easy to use, utility called restoration that I recommend. It can be downloaded here: http://download.cnet.com/Restoration/3000-2094_4-10322950.html. It can be used to recover files that seem to have permanently deleted. I used this program many times with excellent results. You'll have best results if you run this program as soon as possible after any accidental deletion.

    Delete the folder games (solitaire, freecell, Mahjong titans); accidentally deleted from the trash, can't play the games.  How can I get the folder games back?  Is it possible to find items deleted from the Recycle Bin?

    Try to activate and re-activation games by pressing the Windows (lower left)-> typing in "features"-> click on "turn windows features on or off"-> uncheck the games-> press OK.

    Then repeat the same thing, but place a check next to games this time and click OK.

  • Vista Snipping Tool - accidentally deleted from the computer. How can this be restored?

    I accidentally deleted the tool cutting on my windows vista computer.  I sent the tool cutting on the desk and I should have created a shortcut on the desktop. I thought I was remove a shortcut and not the actual tool. I looked on the computer of the tool, but it seems to have disappeared completely.  I can't run system restore because it was some time before I realized my mistake and you do not have a date for the restoration. Searched in the downloads of Microsoft but only capture tool is for tablets.  Please help as I really like this tool

    Hi GailWilton,

    If you open your Windows Explorer program, go to the C:\windows\System32 folder, you see the file Snippingtool.exe?

    If so, you should be able to right click and do a sortcut to your desktop or add a shortcut to the Quick Launch bar

    Otherwise, you can try the following steps and check.

    Step 1:

    Try refreshing the Snipping Tool installation. This tool is part of the Tablet PC optional components in Windows Vista.

    a. open Control Panel, click Classic view in the task pane.

    b. double-click programs and features.

    c. click on the 'activate Windows features and turn off' in the task pane.

    This window may take a few minutes to display.

    When the options appear in the list, scroll to the "Tablet PC Optional Components" and remove the check mark for this element.

    d. click OK, leave everything and restart the computer.

    Once the computer restarts, go back to control panel and repeat the same procedure.

    This time the check box adds the "Tablet PC Optional Components".

    This will install these components in the system with a new copy of all the files.

    Step 2:

    You also, try to run a SFC scan to check all corrupted files.

    You can read the following article to launch the SFC scan:

    Just look through a Favorites folder "music" and decided to delete the old folder it contains. Unfortunately, I managed to delete the folder music together!
    It is not in the Recycle Bin that I find strange, so is there another way I can restore this precious bookmarks folder. Is it hidden in Firefox somewhwere?
    Just to let you know, I'm not that great with computer talk so would appreciate any help being relatively simple if poss. Cheers.

    If you have not yet closed Firefox, just open the library window and use organize > Cancel.

    If you have closed Firefox, restore a backup of bookmark to before this is deleted.

  • Accidentally deleted a folder. What now?

    I deleted my file downloads on the accident and it is not in the Recycle Bin. Is there a way I can find these files?

    "Deleting" a file does not actually delete it marks just the space
    also available to be used. There are third-party programs that can
    sometimes recover deleted files. The problem is that the space used by
    the file is likely to be replaced very quickly, and it makes
    the unrecoverable file.

    So your chances of successfully recover this file are decent if you
    Try it again immediately after the deletion of it and go quickly
    downhill from there. If you have used the computer since then (for
    example to write this question and read this answer), your chances may
    be very poor now.

    But if the file is large enough, it's still worth a try. Stop
    using the computer in question immediately, if you have not done
    already. Download an undelete program (and here's one:)
    http://www3.TELUS.NET/mikebike/restoration.html but there are several
    others to choose from; Do a search) on a friend's computer and bring
    it to you on a floppy disk, CD or USB to try.

    If that fails, your only recourse is to bring or send the disc
    a company of professional file recovery. This kind of service is very
    expensive and may or may not work in your case.
