I would like to restore a file which has been backed up by FileBack PC

FileBack PC offers several options for restoring data.  But in all cases in order to restore a file, FileBack PC has to know how the file was backed up.  This information is contained within a backup job.  If the backup job which created a backup does not exist you will need to restore your previous configuration (FileBack.FBCfg) file, or recreate the backup job manually.  Once this is done, choose one of the following restoration methods:
  • On the "Maintenance Tools" page click either the "Restoration Wizard" or "Quick Restore" button.  The "Restoration Wizard" is used to restore multiple files using specific search criteria, and the "Quick Restore" feature is used when you want to restore just a few files and know the exact location and filenames.
  • From the "Backup Entries" tab page, click on the backup job which created the backup.  Next, either right-click on the entry and select "Restore," or click the drop-down arrow on the "Backup" button and select "Restore from Current Entry"
  • If the "Explorer Context Menu Integration" file is turned on locate original the file in the source folder, or one of the backup copies in the destination folder, then right click the file and select "FileBack PC Tasks."  In the list of tasks select one of the restore options.  The restoration wizard will then be displayed where you can choose the appropriate options and restore your data.
