Restoring a previous version of a file

SMB clients can access previous versions of files stored on shares, as long as a snapshot containing the file/directory exists. A tab labeled Previous Versions is displayed on the Properties page for files and folders for which previous versions are available from snapshots. The tab displays the list of the available previous versions and their corresponding times.

The tab provides a means to access directly the previous versions listed, or to restore from them.
