Data Protection Manager (DPM) allows you to recover files and folders from backups that are stored locally on your computer.

To recover data from backups stored locally

  1. Right-click on any file or folder that you want to restore, and then click Restore previous versions.

    On the Properties dialog box, on the Previous Versions tab, there is a list of available previous versions of the file or folder. The list includes files and folders that are saved to a backup as well as local recovery points.

  2. Before you restore a previous version of a file or a folder, make sure that it is the correct version. To do this, select the previous version, and then click Open to view its contents.

  3. Once you verify that it is the correct file or folder, click Restore.
