If you’ve deleted a file or want to reverse recent changes from an existing one, restoring a previous version of your document is a simple process on Writer for Windows.
You have various options to recover your previous work, either through the iA Writer app or cloud storage.
To revert to a previously saved version of a file, simply right-click on the file in the File List of the Library then select Browse Backups.
iA Writer will give you the choice between the different backups of this file. Select the desired one and click on Restore.
Deleting a document from iA Writer is done by right-clicking on it from the File List and selecting Delete. This will place the file in your local Recycle Bin and naturally, the initial step to recover your document is to access the bin folder.
You can restore the file from there with a right-click.
You can retrieve a deleted document from iA Writer directly. In the Organizer pane of the Library, right-click on the location where the deleted file used to be and select Browse Backups.
