Recover activity

Use this dialog to recover an activity. You can start this dialog from the Activity Explorer view.

The recovery process restores files that belong to the selected activity from the Configuration Management System on the server, and stores them in your local workspace. This is very useful, for example, after a PC crash: On your new PC, you can start LN Studio, open your activity, and restore your local workspace from the server.

Click OK to confirm your selections. The Recover activity dialog starts. Here, you can view the recovery actions that aree taken and decide whether you want to proceed with the recovery process.
