Restore a kDrive file to a previous version

This guide explains how to use the history or versioning of files on kDrive.

Preamble

• This feature is very useful for retrieving deleted information that you might need later.
• Infomaniak keeps a backup of all changes made to files in the version history on kDrive:
  • With a Free offer, file versions are kept for 30 days (maximum 30 versions)
  • With higher offers you will find up to 200 file versions over 60 days (or 120 days for the Pro offer and 180 or 365 days with kDrive within kSuite)
• You can choose to keep certain versions indefinitely.

Managing previous file versions

To access kDrive:

1. Click here to access the Web app kDrive Infomaniak (online service kdrive.infomaniak.com).
2. Navigate through the kDrive directory tree that appears in the left-hand side menu.
3. Right-click on the desired file.

The different versions of the file are listed in reverse chronological order.

You can delete all versions of this file using the button.

Otherwise, a menu to the right of each version allows you to:

• … create a new file on kDrive from this version,
• … download the file as it was at the date/time of the selected version,
• … keep it indefinitely: the version will be kept after the standard retention period,
• … delete the version: allows you to erase only this version.

You can also access all versions of all your files…

1. … from the left menu Manage storage space
