How to manage objects in Backup using the application interface

You can use the application interface to take the following actions on Backup objects:

• View information about objects placed in Backup on the device.
• Restore objects from Backup to their original directories.
• Remove objects from Backup.

  Deleted objects cannot be restored in the future.

Information about restoring and deleting objects is saved to the event log.

To view objects in Backup:

1. Open the main application window.
2. In the lower part of the main application window, click the Backup button.

   This opens the Backup window, displaying a list of objects placed in Backup. The following information is displayed for each object:

   • Object name.
   • Full path to an object.
   • The date when the object was added to Backup.
   • The date when the object was deleted from Backup (this field is displayed if Backup retention period is set).
