Answer 1

Hi @Iniobong Nkanga

Unfortunately, it is not possible to recover deleted chats in Teams. Deleted chat or channel messages cannot be restored directly. If you have a compliance retention policy or legal hold in place for Teams messages, an administrator can recover these from the Compliance center via eDiscovery search. If compliance hasn’t been enabled, the deleted messages are gone forever!
