You can restore selected copies using the
Restore
button. The object is restored
from Backup with the same name that it had prior to disinfection.
If there is an object in the original location with that name (this is possible if a
copy was made of the object being restored prior to disinfection), a warning will
be given. You can change the location of the restored object or rename it.
You are advised to scan backup objects for viruses immediately after restoring
them. It is possible that with updated application databases you will be able to
disinfect it without losing file integrity.
You are advised not to restore backup copies of objects unless absolutely ne-
cessary. This could lead to an infection on your computer.
You are advised to periodically examine the Backup area, and empty it using the
Delete
button. You can also set up the program so that it automatically deletes
the oldest copies from Backup (see 15.2.2 on pg. 163).
