Holaway Important notes for using File History to recover deleted files on Windows:
Enabled Feature: File History must be enabled before the file was deleted for it to be recoverable using this method.
Backup Frequency: Regularly check and adjust the backup frequency and retention settings to ensure that all important files are backed up and retained as long as needed.
Version Control: File History allows you to restore different versions of files, which can be particularly useful if a file was modified or corrupted before being deleted.
