Note: If you need to restore specific files and folders, click on the user account to go to the OneDrive archives for that user. You can either perform a file-level restore or a folder-level restore. Select one or more files or folders and click “Restore.”  

Step 4: In the restore pop-up box, select the snapshot date and time, and select an account to restore the data to.

Step 5: Click the checkbox next to "Restore all permissions” if you want to restore the data with all its sharing permissions intact. If this option is unchecked, the collaborators of the original file will not have access to the restored file. 

Step 6: Click the checkbox next to the option “Create a new folder for restore” if you wish to restore the data to a new folder. If this option is unchecked, the data will be restored to its original location.
