Restoring applications and files

Removed applications and files that have been backed up by UnInstaller can
be restored by the Restore wizard. The Restore wizard also restores archived
applications.
The Restore wizard does restore:
• Archived applications.
• Removed applications that the Remove wizard backed up.
• Files that were removed by the SpaceMaker or Remove wizards, or that
you deleted using the PowerClean feature, if backup copies were made.
The Restore wizard does not restore:
• Move wizard actions.
• Installation of an application that was tracked by Installation Monitor.
• Transported applications.
• Files and Registry settings removed by QuickClean.
How do I restore an archived or backed-up
application?
The Restore wizard can completely restore any application if you have
archived it or let the Remove wizard make a backup copy of the application
before you removed it. The backup copy or the archive must still be available.
To restore an application:
1. Click Restore in the UnInstaller main window.
2. On the Restore wizard screen, click the arrow by the dropdown list and
select the backup or archive folder (Figure 5-1).
• If you do not see the archive you are looking for, you might have
stored it in a different folder. Click Browse to find archives or
backups in other folders. When you select a folder, the archives or
backups that it contains appear in the Restore wizard list.
