Restore Previous Versions

Need to restore previous version from a folder that you recently deleted or altered a document. Well if you computer is setup already it should be as easy as easy as left clicking the folder and clicking on properties and viewing the Previous Version folder.
If the folder has not been activated, then it's probably a good time to do it now, just in case sometime in the future you need this tool.

Setup Previous Version
Control Panel -> System Icon -> System Protection link -> on C drive click on Configure button -> Select Restore System and previous versions of files and then click OK. It may take a while at first but if everything goes right then the next time you left click a folder and click properties and go to the previous version files. You should see other file folders only if a folder was modified before. If not then you'll just see one folder file
