Inbox emails gone! Where and why have they gone? And how do I get them back?

I use my regular hotmail account most every day, some time over the last few days i have noticed that my inbox now has messages only 5 days old, no older and no previous emails. Page 1 of 1 noticed at bottom on inbox page.  That is, all emails that were in my inbox beyond 5 days ago are now not there.  This has not affected my folders, older emails are still in the folders. 
Problem is, that I do not always place inbox emails in folders, I do quite often use the search function for emails and now find that an email that was in my inbox and was found during a search cannot now be found as it maybe in an email that is older than 5 days.  
At the bottom of the inbox page, it notes on page 1 of 1.  i know that i have over 50 pages of old emails going back a number of years.  
Where have all the emails gone from y inbox?  How do I get them back into my inbox. 
I have not changed or knowingly changed any settings that i am aware of, help, how do I get these emails back into my inbox that were there last week, all 50 odd pages over the last 8 years, but now gone?
