Click on See version history to access the version history for your file.

How do I restore an older version of my file?

When you select See version history, you can view previous versions of the file, including when they were saved and who saved them.

Note: You can only change the duration for which previous versions are saved if you have a paid account.

Click on the three vertical dots to see the menu for each file version.

Click on Restore version to make that file the current version

In addition to restoring a previous version, you can also download a specific version or see additional file details.

If you subscribe to the Proton Free plan, Proton Drive will save up to 10 versions of each file for up to seven days.

  1. Log in to Proton Drive in a web browser at https://drive.proton.me
  2. Click on Settings → All settings
  3. This will take you to the main settings dashboard — click Version history in the Proton Drive section
  4. You can now select how long you want version history to save older versions of your files
