Choose a backup and source

The saved items load automatically. Search when you need to narrow a long list.

2

Decide whether to include Time Vault

Turn on Include Time Vault only when you need older retained versions as well as the current backup.

3

Choose where restored files go

Original location writes toward the saved source path. Another folder is safer for testing and comparison.

5

Preview and restore

Preview restore reports selected items and conflicts. Restore these files performs the reviewed request and verifies the written files.
