Desktop Flows Missing

(1) ShareShare

Posted on by 2
When I started Power Automate Desktop today it had reverted to its initial state. After going through the intro screen I found that my desktop flows are missing. I did not uninstall or update the program.  Is there any way to recover my flows?

    I also have the same problem! I'm using a personal email with a Microsoft subscription.

    The one thing that was different today was that when I opened it for the first time today, it asked me what country I am in. After selecting my answer, it logged in, but all my flows are gone.

    I tried checking my flows online and using the desktop app, but they're all gone. Signing in and out did nothing either. I hope this is just a bug and we can recover our flows.

    I found a solution to recover some of the latest flows (even if I didn't delete any). I don't know if you also found this one, but this could help you and maybe others in the future. "Partially restore a deleted desktop flow" worked for me.

    Make sure you are logged in with correct user and in the correct environment. If you are I would try sign in and sign out and restart computer. 

    If those don't work then try the steps in this article to recover lost flows: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-automate/desktop-flows/how-to/restore-deleted-desktop-flow

    None of my flows are showing up either. It appears as though Power Automate deleted all flows on the update last night/this morning. My local files don't have any of the flows and neither does my portal.
