Travel Back in Time and Retrieve Files You Thought Were Lost

Today’s Topic: Learn how to “restore previous versions” of folders and documents.

Who? Users who want to restore a document they may have accidentally deleted OR want to revisit or retrieve an earlier version of a document.

Why? Because you regret the deletion or are unhappy with the current version of the document.

Why F1?

Did you know that pressing the F1 key in nearly any program or application takes you to the help menu? Sure thing! Try it now--you'll get the help menu for Internet Explorer (if that's the browser you're using). Try it in PowerPoint, try it in Word, try it in a house, try it with a mouse . . . . F1 puts learning in YOUR hands. Technology changes too rapidly to only rely on trainings or printed manuals. Instead, the most savvy tech user relies on herself, knowing she can get the most help from a program's help menu. Now you can too. Of course, you can use F1 anytime you want, but here at F1 Tuesdays we'll show off some of the things we think everyone should know and even a few that may impress your friends. Our goal is to make you happy and a bit more snappy with technology.
