OneDrive itself deletes some files and folders
The two firsts times that this happened I thought I accidentally delete the files from phone app and, as a radical approach, I unisntalled it from phone and the deletion issue has gone for a while , however it just happened again and after I got the "files permanently removed" email from MS and have lost 10min restoring roughly 1200 files from online recycle bin, I wonder how this is happening and how to fix it. Has anyone experienced the same ?

- I am having the exact same issue. It has happened to two of my coworkers as well and we need a solution. Also we all know for certain that we did not delete the files, but the files are gone, and we have all received e-mails on stating "files permanently removed" even though none of the three different files were removed on our end. Can someone please help? The file I work with is a rather important one to my company and it has data on it from 2019. Also is there a way to recover the file even though it says it is permanently removed?
dmutti Hi! I haven't run into this issue before but have you tried testing the solution mentioned in the "Deleted files automatically restored back" post? It shows up under "Related Conversations".
