How do I view or retrieve iCloud backup from my Windows 10 laptop?
OneDrive is a Microsoft cloud storage service, and it offers a straightforward way to recover deleted files, similar to the steps you’d take to retrieve icloud backup.
It allows you to restore accidentally deleted files from its Recycle Bin, making it a reliable solution when you need to recover cloud data.
First, visit the official website and sign in with your Microsoft account.
Next, locate and click the Recycle Bin option in the left-hand menu. Browse through the deleted files to find the ones you want to recover.
Once you've selected the files, click the Recover button to restore them to their original locations within the software.
It works for most standard file types, but similar to the process of retrieve icloud backup, there is a retention period, so files won’t remain in the Trash forever.
If you don’t want to use additional recovery software, you can use this built-in feature. It’s a simple and official way to recover files, but you should act before the retention period expires.
Disadvantages
- Deleted files are retained in the Recycle Bin for 30 days; restore them before the retention period ends.
- Restoring large files or a large number of files may take some time; please ensure you have a stable internet connection.
- Files that have been manually deleted from the Recycle Bin cannot be restored using this method.
- If you use the software on multiple devices, the restored files will be synced to all linked devices.
