Finding Deleted Shared Calendar - 21.Oct.2019 3:54:22 PM

We have a client with 93 mailboxes on their exchange 2007 server. They have a shared calendar, which is shared out through a dedicated account, and someone who had the shared calendar open in their Outlook recently deleted it or moved it to their own account

I've spent the day andI cannot find it. Short of manually going through each users's account via OWA and looking in their deleted items for the calendars, is there any way to search across the databases and all accounts? It's not just an entry, it's the entire calendar itself that's been removed or moved.

Any help is greatly appreciated. I would try Export-mailbox but am not sure if it will pickup a whole calendar!

The command I've run is:

get-mailbox -Database �Mailbox Database� | export-mailbox �ContentKeywords �Operations Shared� -TargetMailbox "Administrator" -TargetFolder 'exported'

It's churning through the stores now, but does anyone know if this will return entire Calendars? Or will it only return individual items likes messages, appointments, etc... Is there a switch or command to add to only include actual calendars?

For anyone else who may face this issue, I've also used these two commands:

This exports calendar items and creates calendars
get-mailbox -server server | export-mailbox -StartDate �10/15/2019� -EndDate �10/21/2019� -IncludeFolders �\Calendar"�-TargetMailbox "Administrator" -TargetFolder 'exported'

This exports items from the deleted items, which is where I am hoping to catch the calendar.
get-mailbox -server server | export-mailbox -StartDate �10/18/2019� -EndDate �10/21/2019� -IncludeFolders �\Deleted Items��-TargetMailbox "Administrator" -TargetFolder 'exported4�

After so much searching, I ended up using Stellar OST to PST on a OST file for the shared account and it contained both calendars, even though it was generated after the calendars were lost. So it's a big mystery, is it possible to set a hidden flag on a shared calendar? Is there any way to determine what happened?
