Search for Files in a Backup

The Find feature lets you search through backed up data and restore it from the search results.

You can start a Find operation at the backup set or subclient level. The sub-levels shown on the Search Results tab are based on where you start the Find operation.

From the Find Options window, you can set filtering criteria for a number of different file- or folder-related values, such as name, modification date, size, backup date. If a file is content indexed, you can find files by content.

Note

For large restores (those with more than approximately 10,000 items), restoring by filtered browsing (see Browse and Restore Using Filters) may provide better performance than restoring by the Find feature.
