In the Overview view, the basic information about client settings and backup status is displayed:

  1. Protection status and last backup (synchronization) time.

  3. Continuous Data protection status.

  4. The size of the data that is currently protected in the backup.

Note: You can pause Storware Endpointsclient just by clicking "Enabled" and select one from the available options (15 minutes, 1 hour, 4 hours, or until the next restart).

In the Backups view, you can browse and recover protected files and folders. You also have a search window (upper right corner of the window) to find files by name or extension (you can use the asterisk as well).

To display all available file versions click the watch icon in the Versions column.

You can also use the time slider and the calendar to go to another "point-in-time" moment to restore the data you need.

Set a password and confirm it. It takes a while to set up the password.
