Hi @Álli Gomberg

Welcome to our forum!

Where did the issue occur? On Outlook Desktop Client or Microsoft To Do App?

• If the issue occurred on Outlook Desktop client:

How did you delete? Could you describe more?

Based on my research, if you have deleted individual tasks from the list, you can go to the deleted items to find them and restore them by going to right-click and move them to the task list.However, if you have deleted an entire task list directly, it may be difficult to recover them, as far as I know, this is a permanent operation, it is deleted. (Note: Please check your settings to ensure the Confirm before deleting option is turned on to avoid mis-operation next time.)

If you have had a backup operation before, maybe you can try to restore from the backup, or try to contact Microsoft To Do support team (hstodo@microsoft.com) for further assistant.

• If the issue occurred on Microsoft To Do App:

Please kindly understand that the Outlook tag here we mainly focus on general issues about Outlook desktop client. It's suggested that you could post your case in dedicated forum for Microsoft To Do for more professional advice. 

Thanks for your support and understanding!
