View version history in SharePoint in Microsoft 365 or SharePoint Server 2019 or 2021

1. Open the list or library from the Quick Launch bar.
   If the name of your list or library does not appear, click Site contents or View All Site Content, and then click the name of your list or library.
2. Right click on the space between the item or document name and date, and then click Version History from the menu. You might need to scroll the menu to see Version History.
   If you don't see Version History, click the ellipsis (...) in the dialog and then click Version History.
   You'll see a list of versions of the file.

1. In the Version History dialog, hover next to the version you want view and click the down arrow on the right side to get a list of options.

Click View.
**Note:**For all document versions except the latest, you'll see View, Restore, and Delete. For the latest version, you'll only see View and Restore.

1. The Version History dialog box opens with various actions you can select.
   The actions available vary with version and with attributes that are set up by the administrator or owner.
   The choices change based on whether you selected the latest file, or an earlier version.
   The version history window for the most recent version of the file includes actions to manage, notify, check out, or create a workflow.

The view of the version history for a previous version of a file shows the option to restore or delete that version.

Your understanding and patience will be highly appreciated.

Have a nice day!

Hi Sophia Papadopoulos,

Thank you for your reply.

This method allows to see the Version History just per item:

However, I need it for the overall MS list (for example Test2) to see the Version History.

Is there such an option in general?

Thanks for your help.
