5.  Restoring deleted files: If the file has not been overwritten with a new version, but has been deleted, you have to set the file list filter above the filesystem navigation to Deleted files first.
6. In the wizard popping up click on the version you want to restore.
7. Once you have selected the version you can choose to overwrite the existing version restoring the the file to the original location or restore the file to an alternative location. Please make your choice and click on Next.
