Control Web/Mac/PC Guide

Once you’ve found and selected the folder you want to restore from, click the Next button at the 

bottom right of the Restore window. The window will then switch to a listing of items that can be 
restored from the selected folder.

Each item will have a checkbox to the left of it. For those not present on the Sooloos system, the 
box will already be checked. If there are any of those you don’t want to restore, click on their boxes 
to uncheck them. You may also click unchecked boxes to include items not pre-selected, but this 
will result in the backup files overwriting corresponding files already on the system (which you may 
want to do if the files on the system are corrupt or incomplete for some reason).

Once you’ve finished choosing the items to be restored, click the Run Restore button at the 
window’s bottom right. The window will close, and the restore-progress indicator will appear.

To go back to a previous step, click the Back button. To cancel before starting a restore, click the 

Cancel

 button at the window’s lower left or the X at its upper right.
