disk space to complete the retrieve.

Retrieving a Folder

To retrieve a folder from your drive, and all of the files within a folder, which may be
across multiple categories, in the retrieve files selection box (see Figure 16), right-click
the folder and choose Select folder in all content categories.

Retrieving an Earlier Version of a File or Deleted Files

In the retrieve files selection box (see Figure 16), check the Show Deleted Files box
and/or the Show older versions of files box. Now, when selecting files to retrieve, you
can select individual files that were overwritten or deleted. Likewise, retrieving entire
folders in this mode will retrieve older versions and deleted files as well.

Retrieving All Your Files

On the Select content to retrieve... screen (see Figure 15 on page 25), choose the
Retrieve all Files option, which retrieves files across all categories and copies them to
either their original locations or the Retrieve Contents folder.
