- Select Send code. If it’s the correct recovery email address, a code will be sent to it.

Check your email for the verification code and:
- Enter it in the new Enter code window
- Select Verify

If the code is correct, the Restore your OneDrive page loads.
- Choose the Select a date dropdown box
- Select how far back to go with the OneDrive restore
