For Code42 users who have accidentally deleted a document and need to restore it, you can use the Code42 App to do so.
If you are replacing your device, please see the Code42 How to Restore a Backup onto a New Computer.
Step-by-step guide
- Log into the Code42 App using your MyID and password, then using DUO Login.
- Windows: Find the app in the Windows Menu or in the system tray at the bottom of your screen (you may need to click the ^ symbol to see the icon).
- Mac: Find the app in your Applications folder or the menu bar at the top of your screen.
- Click the "Restore Files" button.
- The next screen will show you the folders and files you have included in your backup. Place a check mark beside any folders or files you would like to restore. Then click the "Restore Files..." button.
- Here you will decide where you want the file(s) to be restored. We recommend the following settings:
- Save selected files to: Downloads
- If file already exists: Rename
- Permissions: Current
- Once the restore is complete, open your Downloads folder to find your file(s).
- Move the file where you would like to store it, then double-click it to open it.
