As far as I know you can't delete Messages - it's part of macOS. Perhaps you have instead deleted it from your Dock?

See if it is in your Applications folder, or use Spotlight to search for it.

messages not updating on Mac I logged out of my Mac where it no longer showed any of my text messages, now when I log back in it won't update the messages I received months ago. It only shows my older messages and any new ones. The messages have about a 4 month time period where they're not updated.
