Web Restore is a great feature allowing you to restore a file or a folder on any computer with an Internet connection.

1) From a web browser, (such as Internet Explorer, Safari or Firefox) go to http://backup1.drlogic.com

2) Log in using your email address and password (as provided to you by Dr Logic Backup)

3) You’ll see a summary page showing you the computers that are backing up – click on the Restore link next to the computer you wish to restore from.

4) You’ll then see a familiar file browser where you’ll be able to navigate and select the files or folders you wish to restore by ticking the checkbox.
You’ll be given the option to see which versions of a file you wish to restore, and whether or not you wish to Display Deleted Files.

5) A summary below tallies the files you’ve selected and displays their size. When you’re ready, press the Restore button.

6) CrashPlan will then prepare your files for download and once ready will display a link to download.

The restored files will be downloaded to your web browser’s default location. Usually this is the Desktop or Downloads folder.
