You Have 30 Days To Recover Deleted Gmail Messages—Here’s How

You Have 30 Days To Recover Deleted Gmail Messages—Here’s How
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

Hidden Google tool can (sometimes) recover deleted Gmail

When you delete an email from your Gmail inbox, it is moved to the trash folder and stays there for 30 days. The email is permanently deleted once the time limit expires or if you choose to empty the trash beforehand. This feature is beneficial for privacy and security, but it may pose a problem if you accidentally delete something important and need to recover it. It also raises concerns about malicious actors gaining access to your presumed deleted emails. Here’s everything you need to know about deleting and recovering messages in Gmail.

ForbesFBI Issues Advisory As Hackers Strike: Email Admins Do This 1 Thing NowBy Davey Winder

Clearing Your Gmail Inbox Of Sensitive Historic Messages Is Good Security Hygiene

There are many reasons why email messages could end up in the trash folder awaiting permanent deletion by Gmail. Maybe you’ve had a private conversation with someone you wouldn’t want to be seen by anyone else, or perhaps a message contained sensitive information concerning a password reset you want to delete for security reasons. Indeed, it’s generally considered good security hygiene to delete messages that may be useful to a hacker if ever your Gmail account were to be compromised. Reducing the attack surface, including your email inbox, is never a bad thing. Unless you accidentally delete an important message, that is. Everything in your trash folder, also labeled as the bin depending upon geographic location, will get permanently deleted after a 30-day period. The same is true for your spam folder, so it’s important to check both folders for anything that has arrived there that you may want to keep.

ForbesGoogle Confirms Major Gmail AI Security Update For 3 Billion UsersBy Davey Winder

How To Recover Deleted Emails In Gmail

If you find anything in the trash folder that you want to keep, just like any other folder, including spam, you can simply opt to move that message back to your inbox or anywhere else for that matter. As long as it is within the 30-day time limit, of course. Simply head for the trash or bin folder, select the message you want to retrieve and move it. That’s all there is to it unless you have manually deleted it or the time limit has expired.

Moving as yet permanently deleted messages is easy enough

Google/Davey Winder

If the message in question isn’t displayed, then the chances are that it’s been too long for the move-to-inbox method to work, or you manually emptied the trash before the 30-day expiration date. This is when things get a little more complicated and a lot more uncertain when not comes to a successful recovery.

Google itself states that “After 30 days, the message is permanently deleted from your account and can’t be recovered,” and while this is accurate for users of personal Gmail accounts, there is some hope for them if they have emptied the trash before that limit hits. A user posting to the official Gmail support community with a plea for help after accidentally deleting a folder containing travel ticket confirmations and then emptying the trash as well, was in for a pleasant surprise. A ‘diamond product expert’ in the support forum suggested that while such incidents are usually not reversible when it’s the user deleting the trash, there’s a ‘secret’ Google tool meant for accounts that have been hacked but which can sometimes help.

The Gmail Message Recovery Tool

The Gmail Message Recovery Tool describes itself as being able to “recover your emails that might have been deleted due to someone accessing your account without permission.” Upon arriving at the page for this rarely talked about Google resource, the Gmail account to be probed will be displayed along with a statement that “we will try to recover emails that were deleted within the last 30 days.” This is important, as messages that have simply run out of time are not recoverable; it’s for when the trash has been prematurely emptied.

The ‘secret’ Gmail Message Recovery Tool in action

Google/Davey Winder

Once you have confirmed that the Gmail account is correct, click the continue button and let the tool complete the search. How long this takes will depend upon how big your recently deleted trash folder is. However, within a minute or so you should know if Google has been able to rescue your deleted messages or not. There is no guarantee of success, although the user who had lost their travel confirmations posted a reply that said “I was able to retrieve the emails with the link you provided. What a relief!”

Not every recovery effort will come with a happy ending, so it’s far better to avoid being in this situation in the first place.

Not all recovery efforts are successful

Google/Davey Winder

I suggest you make it a habit to check your spam and trash folders regularly, at least once every 30 days. That way, you are likely to spot any errant messages and rescue them before they evaporate into the ether. Never manually hit the ‘empty trash’ button unless there is a very good reason for doing so. You could consider archiving rather than deleting messages, as this removes them from your inbox. However, they are still easy to find, as they show up when displaying all mail. This makes archiving a poor option from the security and privacy perspectives. It is possible to backup your Gmail messages, using tools such as Got Your Back or Own My Copy which then give you another recovery option. I’m less keen on duplicating email message data, however, as you then have an increased attack surface to manage.
