Saving and Restoring Snapshots

The Save/Restore snapshots function lets you save up to two snapshots of your profile (eg. files stored in your Desktop, Documents, and Downloads folders).  This enables you to “roll back” your work to a previous state if you make a mistake or accidentally delete a file.
