OneDrive & Teams - Recover Files

If you have deleted or overwritten a file saved on OneDrive or in the Files section of Teams you can recover it.

For OneDrive both options listed below are accessed via the OneDrive website (links on My Runshaw & the Staff Portal)

For Teams open the File section in the team or channel & select Open in SharePoint

Deleted File

Deleted files can be recovered from the Recycle bin for up to 90 days

The recycle bin can be found in the left hand menu

Select the file/files required & select Restore from the top menu

If you can't find what you are looking for check the Second-stage recycle bin - a link to this can be found at the bottom of the recycle bin list

If you have saved over a file & it's no longer showing the version you want you can recover earlier versions of a file.

Select the file you want (click to the left of the file name to select it)

Click on ... on the top menu & select Version history

You will see a list of dates & times the file was modified.

Hover over a version to see the options icon

Click on the option to Open the file to view it or Restore

Restore will over write the current version - if you want to keep that as well use Save As
