# Performing Synthetic Recovery of a File System Resource

You can compose a restore set from the last known good versions of files across backup sets, removing malware and minimizing rollback/disruption.

This method recovers the most recent uncorrupted version of each file across all available backups, ensuring a clean recovery point while minimizing data loss. This option may recover older version of files, if the most recent version is infected.

Available restore destinations: In-place, out-of-place, or clean room.
