You were exactly right, I did have the scenario you mentioned. So I changed
my Group Policy and removed the "Empty Deleted Items on Exit" setting. It
now works, I am able to see recovered items after I resync the folders.
Hopefully the hotfix will allow me to enable my GP at some point.
Thanks for your help.
