Microsoft is working on updating its OneDrive cloud-based storage service with a brand new feature that would enable quick file recovery.

Based on backups created in the cloud, OneDrive’s so-called Files Restore has already been demoed by Microsoft at a SharePoint Saturday event in San Diego a few days ago. Ryan Schouten, Microsoft MVP, said in a tweet that the feature will launch in the next couple of weeks and that it’ll allow to “restore the files from any point you want.”

One particular case when file recovery from the cloud is particularly helpful is following a ransomware attack. Microsoft has taken several steps to reduce the impact of a ransomware infection, and with this new feature, users would be able to restore their files even if drives have previously been compromised by malware.
