Streamlining Efficiency with ShareMaster: Effortless File Version Rollbacks

Are you in search of a straightforward method to perform file version rollbacks in your SharePoint document library? Look no further than ShareMaster, a robust tool designed to simplify version control and make resetting file versions a breeze.

With ShareMaster, you can easily reset file versions. This feature is readily available in the free-tier version of ShareMaster, allowing you to select multiple files from your SharePoint document library and specify the version to which you want to reset them. It's an incredibly user-friendly process that can save you valuable time and effort.

Important Note:

While utilizing ShareMaster's Version Reset feature is a powerful way to reset file versions, it's crucial to understand how it works. Essentially, this feature captures a snapshot of the most recent version and duplicates it as version 1, subsequently advancing the version number. As a result, the entire version history is wiped clean, leaving only the latest file version and its associated metadata intact. The primary objective of this function is to reset the version number itself.

If your needs require similar functionality while preserving both file and metadata versions, we invite you to reach out to us via our website's "Contact Us" page. Depending on demand, we may explore the development of a tailored solution to meet your specific requirements.

Steps to Reset Version Numbers in ShareMaster:

  1. Upon launching ShareMaster, navigate to Explore Master (included in the free-tier of ShareMaster).
  2. Select "Add Connection" and sign in to your SharePoint site.
  3. Click on "Files" in the left-hand navigation panel.
  4. Locate the document library hosting your files.
  5. Handpick the file or files you wish to reset.
