Restore files from a backup (for Windows 7)

To restore files from a back up:

Click on the Start button, and enter at the Control Panel.

Select the System and Maintenance tab, and then Backup and Restore.

Then you have two choices, depending on which files you wish to restore.

If you want to restore just your own files, then simply choose Restore my files.

If you want to restore the files of all users on your computer, press Restore all users’ files.  You might need to give a password in this case.

After you have done so, click Browse for files in order to browse the contents of the backup.
