Restoring a backup when the SharePoint icon does not display

If you add a client with SharePoint installed, run backups on the SharePoint farm; later, uninstall the SharePoint instance from the client. The SharePoint icon may not display in the Navigation pane of the Unitrends interface. Even so, the backups taken of the SharePoint farm are still on the Unitrends system and remain available for restore; but without the option to first select the SharePoint icon when performing a restore, another method of selecting a backup for restore must be used.

From the Calendarized Backup Information pane in the middle of the screen, navigate through backups by clicking the left and right arrows to browse a month’s worth of backups at a time.

Any backups completed on the selected date are highlighted below. Click on a backup you want to restore, then click Restore.
