How can users restore deleted emails in Gmail?

Users can restore deleted emails in Gmail by accessing the Trash folder, where deleted emails are held for a period of 30 days. During this time, if a user accidentally deletes an email, it remains in the Trash and can be easily recovered by navigating to that folder and selecting the emails they wish to restore.

This process is straightforward and allows users to manage their deleted items efficiently without needing to contact support or utilize additional tools. Once the 30-day timeframe has passed, however, those emails will be permanently deleted and cannot be recovered through the Trash folder anymore.

In contrast, contacting Google Support typically would be a last resort for issues that can't be resolved through standard user actions and doesn't apply to routine email recovery. Using the Gmail recovery tool is not needed for emails that remain in Trash during the specified recovery period. The option of downloading emails prior to deletion does not assist in recovering deleted items, as it is not a method for restoration but rather a preventative measure.
