Summary

Show ▼
Microsoft 365 Backup is adding file- and folder-level restore for SharePoint and OneDrive, reducing the need for a full site or drive recovery when only a single item is damaged or deleted. The change matters because it can speed recovery and cut restore overhead for admins handling ransomware, accidental deletion, or corruption. The feature entered public preview in early March 2026 and is expected to reach general availability in late April to early May 2026.
