Restoring From Your Backup

At times, your critical data may be corrupted. Fortunately, Retrospect

Express HD provides you with the ability to restore your crucial ﬁles.

If you need to restore your entire computer, see “Restoring

Your Computer” on page 40.

Open Retrospect Express HD

The Welcome Screen will appear, with the next

scheduled backup displayed.

Click

Restore

Select a restore point from which you wish to recover

your data and click

Retrospect Express HD will now scan your computer.

Place a check in each box containing data you wish

to restore

Use the search ﬁeld to ﬁnd speciﬁc ﬁles

Click

You will now be asked where you wish to restore your

ﬁles to. You have two options:

• Their original location

• The following location

Make your choice and click

Restore

Retrospect Express HD will then restore the ﬁles to your

pre-selected location and provide you with the time that it

will take to complete the restore. When ﬁnished, the

Retrospect Express HD window will appear.

Understanding the Restore Points Window

The restore points window shows a calendar with the date in bold

for the days that restore points were created. It will also list all the

restore points in ascending order in a list box.

When you select a date on the calendar, the list of restore points

will automatically scroll to show all those that are associated with

that speciﬁc date. The latest backup on that date will be

highlighted. The drive for the restore point will also be shown.

A green icon will appear before the date if the backup was

successful, a yellow icon if the backup succeeded with some

non-fatal errors, and a red icon if the backup failed.
