Restoring only modified files
You can specifically restore modified files, which can be either of the following:
• Files that do not currently exist on the backup source
• Files that differ from the version on the backup source
The Restore Now Wizard offers the feature Show Modified to help locate these files and the feature Add Modified to help you select these files for restore. DS-Client locates modified files by searching through the backup source and comparing its results with details of the backup set in the DS-Client database.
• To open the Restore Now Wizard, browse the Backup Sets tree, right-click the required backup set, and click Restore Now.
To locate and add modified files for restore
1. In the
Select directories/files for restore screen, select a directory and click

2. To locate modified files, click Show Modified.
Modified files that DS-Client has located are highlighted in Files List.
3. To select the modified file(s) and include them for restore, click Add Modified while they are highlighted.
