[Autogenerated] high in this lesson. I'm
going to show you how to restore a major
version of a document in a document
library. Let's go to our job descriptions
library and we are going to restore an
older version of this document. The
accountant job description. We want to go
ahead and go to the show actions button
and look at the version history, The
version. History is going to show us all
of the versions of this document, and we
see that there are eight of them now.
Previously, we have looked through a
couple of these and we've decided we'd
actually like to go all the way back to
the very first version the original
version of this document. So we're gonna
hover over it and we're going to select
that little drop down there. And you see,
we have the option to restore the document
version. So we're going to click there and
it says you're about to replace the
current version with the selected version.
Is that okay? Yes, it's absolutely fine,
because what really happens is it doesn't
delete anything. It just creates a new
version. Version nine inversion eight was
the one that was the previous major
version. So if we ever wanted to go back
to that version, we sure could. We see
that version one is also still here. Now,
since version one and version nine of the
same, you might feel like you can go ahead
and delete version one. But that's another
lesson for another day. I want to show you
how you can go ahead and restore a
previous major version from Microsoft
Word. The desktop version is well, so
let's go ahead. Let's get out of here and
we're gonna open this document up, but
we're gonna open it inward. Remember,
there is no way to restore versions in the
online version of word. What we're going
to do now is in Microsoft Word. We're
gonna goto our file tab and from the info
page, we come down to version history and
you'll see we have you and restore
previous versions were gonna click there.
And let's say that we want to restore
aversion eight, which will be this one
here by Pierce Boyd. We're gonna click
that to view it, and you see, we have the
ability to restore right here. We're gonna
click that restore button and there it is.
That is now the current major version of
this document. We're going to save it.
We're gonna close it, and we're gonna take
another look at our version history. And
now we see that that is version 10. So now
you know how to restore major versions of
documents in SharePoint Document Library.
Thanks for listening. And I'll see you next time.
