Modified on Mon, Feb 10 at 9:45 AM

If something went wrong, you can restore your OneDrive to a previous time.


Steps:

  1. Go to your OneDrive online
    • Ex. https://<orgname>-my.sharepoint.com
  2. Click on the gear icon (Settings) on the upper right of the screen
  3. Click on “Restore your OneDrive”


4. One the Restore page, select a date from the dropdown list (e.g., One week ago) or choose “Custom date a time” to specify a particular date

  • Note: The furthest date you can restore back to is 29 days from today



5. Use the activity chart and activity feed to review the recent activities you want to undo – if you selected a custom date and time, choose the earliest activity you want to undo 

  • Note: all subsequent activities will be automatically selected

6. Scroll back to the top of the activity feed to review all the activities you are about to undo – when ready, click the “Restore” button to complete the process
