If you are restoring an entire iFolder and want to ensure that it is in the exact state it
was in when it was backed up, you should first delete the current iFolder from the
server using a client or the iFolder 3 plug-in for iManager.
Deleting the iFolder is not necessary to restore any or all of the files in the iFolder;
the difference is in what metadata is given preference during the restore. If you do
not delete the iFolder before restoring, the attributes of the iFolder, such as the
owner, members, file type or size restrictions, remain as they are in the current
version.
