I inadvertently deleted a previous version of file. How can I restore it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Windows has a tool that can help you with this, if it has been\u00a0enabled<\/a>\u00a0prior to your needing restoration.\u00a0<\/strong>Once File History has been configured to your liking, you can restore previous versions of files by using any of these methods:<\/p>\n 1. Launch a File History restore operation by accessing a file’s Properties page and using the controls on the Previous Versions tab. Navigate to the current version of the file. Right-click on the file>Properties<\/p>\n 2. Launch the File History tool and navigate to the Restore command at the bottom of the Backup Options page. To do this, in the search box on the task bar, type restore files<\/strong>, and then select\u00a0Restore your files with File History<\/strong>. Look for the file that you need. Use the arrows to view all of its versions. When you find the version you want, select\u00a0Restore <\/strong>in order\u00a0<\/strong>to save it in its original location. To save it in a different place, right-click Restore<\/strong>, select\u00a0Restore to<\/strong>, and then choose a new location.<\/p>\n 3. Launch the restore operation from within File Explorer. Navigate to the directory where the original file resided. Select the file in File Explorer. Click the History button. File History will open the most recent backup copy of the file in a preview mode. You can scroll through all the available versions by using the Previous and Next buttons at the bottom of your screen. Once you locate the version that you want to restore, just click the green<\/em> Restore<\/strong> button. File History will prompt you for the next step. The default choice is Replace The File In The Destination<\/em>. However, if you wish to keep both files, there is also an option for that.<\/p>\n You’ll also notice a small cog icon in the upper-right corner of the File History window. Clicking the icon and choosing Restore To<\/em> will open the Restore To dialog. This will enable you to select another location on your hard disk to restore the file to, so that you can review both files and decide later which to keep.<\/p>\n Reference:\u00a0 https:\/\/support.microsoft.com\/en-us\/help\/4027408\/windows-10-backup-and-restore<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Question I inadvertently deleted a previous version of file.
