Shared forms suddenly deleted
Dear all, My colleague has created several forms for event registrations. She has shared the forms with the team but left our company end of May. A week ago, all of her created forms disappeared....

Hey ChrisHoardMVP
Thank you so much for the detailed reply.
Unfortunately, it was a personal form. We will try now to recover her account and keep our fingers crossed that the forms are still in the recycle bin.
Best,
Jasmin

Jasmin_Wachter If the account (and the Form) has not been permanently deleted you have the option to transfer the ownership of the form to someone else. https://support.office.com/en-gb/article/transfer-ownership-of-a-form-921a6361-a4e5-44ea-bce9-c4ed63aa54b4?ui=en-US&rs=en-GB&ad=GB
And as ChrisHoardMVP said, use Group Forms in the future to avoid this type of problem.
Best of Luck!
Regards, Magnus
