# Step 4. Specify Account and Restore Mode

At the **Account & Restore mode** step of the wizard, specify the following restore settings:

- [Azure account](#account)
- [Restore mode and destination](#mode)

## Specifying Azure Account {#account}

To select the account whose permissions Veeam Data Cloud for Microsoft Azure will use to perform the restore operation, do the following:

1. Click **Select account**.
2. In the **Select Account** window, select an Azure account that you want to use for the restore procedure.

## Specifying Restore Mode and Destination {#mode}

In the **Restore mode** section, choose whether you want to restore the virtual network configuration to the original location or to a custom location.

If you select the **Restore to a new location, or with different settings** option, you must also select an Azure subscription and region. To do this, in the **Destination** section, perform the following steps:

1. Click the **Subscription** button and, in the **Select Subscription** window, choose the necessary subscription.

   For a subscription to be displayed in the list of available subscriptions, it must be [created](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/cost-management-billing/manage/create-subscription) in Microsoft Azure and [associated](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/fundamentals/active-directory-how-subscriptions-associated-directory) with the Microsoft Entra tenant to which the specified service account belongs.

2. Click the **Region** button and, in the **Select Region** window, choose the necessary Azure region.

Data transfer to a new location may result in additional costs and may take more time to complete.
