Restore a File from Your History

If you improperly edit, accidentally delete, or corrupt a file through a system crash, you can restore a previous version of the file.

Why would you want to revert to a previous version of a file? One reason is that you might have improperly edited the file by deleting or changing important data. You may be able to retrieve that data from an earlier version. Another reason is that the file might become corrupted if the program crashes. You can get a working version of the file back by restoring a previous version.
