Snapshot recover of one file
Hi, I am very confused... I have one file I need to get back as it corrupted, it is stored as a snapshot (snapshot every hour) so just need to recover from "Share" and the "Directory" then the "File"...

Enable Allow snapshot access, grab the file via SMB, AFP, whatever your computer uses, then disable snapshot access.

Thanks, I have clicked snapshot allow access but still cannot find a way to roll back just that file?

Once you have enabled snapshot acess, you should see a snapshot folder in the share and you can browse the snapshots there to find your file.

If you are using Windows 7 or Windows 10, you can also right-click on the corrupted file (from Windows Explorer), and select restore previous versions.
