Recovering a lost folder (exists on hard-drive) - Microsoft Community


hi,

i moving mails 1 folder folder (outlook.com account) , mac outlook crashed. after folder "2016-sent" has disappeared.

if open library/group containers/..../main profile/data/outlook.sqlite and @ "folders" table, can still see "2016-sent" folder in database. record_recordid 183. if run following query on sqlite file

select count(*)
mail
record_folderid = 183

i 5466 result quite right.  also if go mail table , find mails in folder 183 , check column pathtodatafile, files physically exist.


for example - found file: messages/136/88733dfb-3f5a-4351-aa91-06e2ef7e0eb7.olk15message 

this kind of messages have lost , trying find. means messages physically exist on hard-drive link has been removed.

the folder 183's parent folder 181 (which have deleted outlook.com account)  and folder 181's parent folder id 1. 

if make new "on computer" folder , update parent of folder 183 folder. recover data? can technical team please confirm this?

i make backup of .sqlite file  before doing need make full backup of "main profile" folder? note on 25gb.

hi chris,

i see mails in search results , moved there.


thanks!
