  4. Click Application Items on the ribbon and the select the application.
  5. In the restore wizard, select a restore point that will be used to restore the application, specify a restore reason and click Browse.
  6. In the Veeam Explorer application, perform the steps described in the Veeam Explorers User Guide.
