How to use version history and roll back
Files and sharing 1:14
Uploading a new version keeps the old one rather than replacing it, and every version is listed with its date and size so you can restore any of them. Restoring turns the current version into history instead of discarding it.
- 1 Right-click a file and choose Upload new version.
- 2 Pick the new file: same name, new contents, previous version kept.
- 3 Open Version history to see every version with its date and size.
- 4 Choose Restore on an older version to bring it back as the current one.
- 5 Use this with any file type: documents, designs, spreadsheets or photos.
Here’s a document that’s about to change. Right-click, Upload new version.
Pick the new file. Same name, new contents, and the old one is kept.
Open Version history. Every version is listed with its date and size.
Need the old one back? Restore it. The current version becomes history, not garbage.
This works for any file type. Documents, designs, spreadsheets, photos.
