Hi

Is there a way in SharePoint Online to undo files/folders accidently moved to deleted? Like in file explorer in Windows 10.

Or is the only thru version history? But then you don't know where the file/folder files were moved too.

version history
Select Site Contents --> Site Pages and the name of the page that you have modified.

Click the ellipses (…) next to the item for which you want to view history.

Select an earlier version and Restore.

    Hi @Virtual Tech ,

    1.Per my knowledge, you could go to Recycle bin to restore the deleted files/folders.

    Settings > Site information > View all site settings > Site Collection Administration > Recycle bin

    2.You could use Audit Log to search files/folder that you accidently moved.

    Microsoft 365 admin center > Show all > Compliance > Audit
