Restoring Files

When you restore a file, you have options about which file version to restore and what
location to restore it to.

Selecting a Version to Restore

When you back up the files stored in selected folders, the Maxtor Central Axis Manager
saves up to ten (10) previous, or historical, versions of each file on your Central Axis. You
can restore a saved historical version of a backed up file or you can restore the most recent
version.
• Historical Version: Select a version of a file to be restored based on the date the
file was backed up. The number of historical versions available is based on the
number set in the Historical Versions option in the Backup tab of the Settings
window. You can choose to save between 1 and 10 historical versions.
• Latest Version: Restore the most recent version of a file.

Selecting a Restore Location

Files can be restored to their original location or to a temporary location.
• Original: Restore files to their original location, replacing the existing version.
• Temporary: Restore files to a temporary location in the Documents folder of the
current user (for example, /Users/John/Documents/Maxtor Restore.)
