Restore
Restore may refer to any of the following:
1. Alternatively called a system restore, restore is reverting a computer back to its original configuration or an earlier copy. See our factory settings definition for full information and related links.
2. Restore describes recovering lost or old data from a backup.
3. Restoring is taking a window that was minimized and enlarging it back to maximized or its "Normal" size. Restore also refers to taking a maximized window and reducing it to a "Normal" size. In Microsoft Windows, this action can be carried out using the three-button menu (shown right) found in the upper-right corner of a window.
When the window is reduced in size, it's also called restore down.
