3. (In Microsoft Teams, go to the Files tab at the top of the channel, select three dots, and then click Open in SharePoint.)
4. When you’re on the SharePoint page you selected, click on Documents in the menu on the left.
   
5. Select Settings Icon, and then click Restore library. (Note! If Reset this library doesn’t appear under Settings, you either don’t have permission or you’re looking at a classic library).
   
6. Click on the arrow and choose for how long you want to restora your liberacy to. (You can restore to a maximum of 29 days ago.)
7. Choose custom date and time to be specific.
