To Do tasks disappearing – possibly being archived?
Tasks are disappearing from To Do (Microsoft 365 Enterprise). I have one list that is just a list (ie, I never mark entries as completed). I don’t know how many entries there were originally, but I would think close to 100. Recently I noticed it had dropped to 41, a few days later to 31, then 29 and today it has 27 entries. There’s no problem syncing between devices and platforms; they’re all showing the same items at any one point in time. Someone in another Microsoft community suggested they could be being automatically archived. I’ve asked our internal IT team to look at a policy that stops To Do items from being archived. If the items have been archived, my problem is that I don’t know where they’re being archived to so that I can recover them. I do have Online Archiving configured, but there’s no folder either in my main mailbox or in my online archive that looks like it would contain To Do items (eg, there’s no Tasks folder). Any help in either understanding what’s causing my To Do items to progressively disappear, or where my lost To Do items could be recovered from would be greatly appreciated.
