Restore from S3 to local disk

Post by Athena »

Hello,

I have a backup task copying data from OneDrive (for Business) to S3.
When restoring a file, I can only restore to initial source (OneDrive), not to local disk.

How could I restore folders stored in S3 (with versioning and timestamp) to local disk ?

Thanks in advance for your help.

The Restore Wizard allows you to specify the destination on the last step.

Alternatively, you can simply duplicate the profile, change the left side and choose the copying directory from right to left.

Yes, I mentioned an existing destination path "C:\Restore", but I got an error message :
"Cannot access left path: C:\Restore".


But alternative solution works.

Maybe the error is correct and this folder cannot be used. Unless you run Syncovery by right-click ‘As Administrator’, it may not have the right to create or write to this folder.

You might want to create the folder yourself in Windows File Explorer first.

The log file will contain a more detailed error message.
