I don't know if these first details are important, but I was setting up a filter to block a sender. The Trash file was in the background. After setting it up, I clicked run now. It ran and every email in my trash file was gone. I am trying to recover these files. I'm on a desktop Win10. I removed the filter and it didn't help. I went off-line, right-clicked on the trash file and clicked on properties and then clicked on repair file. It ran for a while and then two old emails appeared in the trash file of the 38000+ that were in there. Tried it again, nothing. I have NOT run compress files. Is there anyway that anyone knows that I can recover these emails? Thanks.
