Address 17ABrUpBNURhgiSfTuRvtpMDEXwivcdCZ has 0.991871 BTC in it, if it isn't showing up in your wallet there's something wrong with the wallet.

change addresses are used for security. each time you send bitcoin the remaining balance will be split to change addresses.

You can choose 'not to use change address' in electrum settings and then the rest of the funds will be sent back to the same address they were in before.
