(snippet) Reverting Back to Previous HS4 Version

Reverting to a Previous Version

If you wish to revert to a previous version, you'll need to follow the steps below. Starting with beta 4.2.17.2, a new backup feature was added to back up your configuration whenever you update your HS4 version. The backup may be retrieved from Setup.
