HP Colorado Backup II on page 10 .

New and Changed Files backups. Which backup sets you’ll need to restore
depends on your backup strategy.
If you performed:
All Selected Files only —restore only your most recent backup set.
All Selected Files and Differential New and Changed Files —restore your All
Selected Files backup first, then restore the most recent Differential backup
set.
All Selected Files and Incremental New and Changed Files —restore your All
Selected Files backup first, then restore each of the Incremental backups
sets in order, starting with the oldest.
3. Restore the All Selected Files backup set. Make the following option
selections on the Restore window:
What to Restore —Click Device view , then select each local drive.
Where to Restore —Choose Original Locations .
How to Restore —Choose Always replace .
4. Click Start .
5. If you used the Back up Windows Registry... option and backed up the
registry, a prompt will appear asking if you would like to restore the
Windows Registry. See
Advanced Tab on page 38 for information on this
option.
