Performing a Restore Use the following steps to run your first data restore.
1	Select the files to restore. The desired restore files must be selected before beginning the restore. Restoring older versions of files can be accomplished by changing the backup date that is currently set for the display.

A list of available backup dates, along with three "view options" can be viewed by pressing this button. The three view options are described below: Show Files Before: This option will display all the files backed up before the selected date. If a file has been deleted in a previous backup, it will not be displayed in the restore view for selection. Show Files After: This option will display all the files backed up after the selected date. Show Files On: This option will display all the files backed up on the selected date. This is the most restrictive option. Only the specific files that were backed up on the selected date will be displayed for selection in the restore view.
	HINT: To restore a group of files as of a specific backup, the Show Files Before option should be selected, along with the appropriate date in the restore date list. To view all the files that are available for restore including previously deleted files, the Show Files After option should be selected, along with the oldest backup date in the restore date list.
