Hello, I am having a in issue with an Outlook calendar event that disappeared; I cannot find a way to recover it. I had a meeting scheduled this morning and when I looked at my calendar this morning, the meeting was visible. At some point during the meeting, I noticed it was not there anymore. I don't recall deleting it. I tried to locate it in some type of deleted folder, but I could not find any folder with deleted calendar events. The meeting is part of a recurring series and I am still able to view the other meetings in the recurring series. I am using the Outlook web app primarily, but I also have my calendar synchronized with other devices and my desktop app. Does anyone have any idea about why the meeting disappeared and/or how I might recover it? Thank you.

    Find the Deleted Items folder in the left-hand pane at https://outlook.live.com/ if you are using a Microsoft account for your mailbox.

    Hi. I'm Brian and I will do my best to help you.

    Are you using Outlook.com with a web browser or using a mail client like desktop Outlook?

    Open the mail interface and you'll see the Deleted Items folder. Your deleted event should be there. It should have "[Unknown]" as the From and the subject will be the event name. Select it, if you see it, then click Restore in the ribbon or right-click the event and choose Restore in the context menu that appears. You may have to scroll through your item list to find it. It's "Received" date will be the time the event was created, not the time for which it was schedule.

    If it doesn't appear in the Deleted Items folder, it's doubtful you'll be able to recover it.
