Restoring files
The Restore Files project restores individual files and folders that you

and then click the action button. The files are restored to the location
you choose.
To restore a file:
1 Click the Backup Files tab in the project list. A list of projects is
displayed.
2 Click the Restore Files project. The project window opens.
3 If the backup file was saved on a disc, insert the disc into a
compatible disc drive.
4 Click Browse at the top of the Selective Restore project window. A
dialog box opens.
5 Use the dialog box to navigate to the backup file that contains
the files you would like to restore. After you have found the
backup file, click it, then click OK. The content of the backup file
appears as a directory tree in the project window.

the following methods:
• Navigate through the directory tree in the project window.
When you find a file or folder you want to restore, select it by
clicking on its name.
• Type all or part of a file or folder name into the Search box to
the right of the Browse button. Click Search. The search
results are displayed in the project window. If the file you
want to restore appears in the search results, select it by
clicking once on its name. If the file does not appear in the
search results, try using different search terms or looking in a
different backup file.

the location where your restored files will be saved.

Restore files tips
• Restore Files can be used to restore as many files or folders as you
wish.
• Restore Files will not overwrite a file without getting your
permission.
• Backup files created with the Backup Files project can be
recognized by their .rfc file name extension. If you double-click
an .rfc file, the project launcher opens with the Backup Files
project displayed. To restore files, switch to the Restore Files
project.
• The Restore Files search box does not support wildcard
expressions.
• System files cannot be restored to their original location if they
are in use by your computer's operating system.
