Restoring to Original Image

When adjusting your images in Develop mode, the original file is never changed. The changes are saved in a separate file, and are applied each time the image is opened. The non-destructive processing power of ACDSee Photo Studio 8 means you can freely make changes to your images while knowing they can be restored to their original, untouched state at any time. 

When you open a processed image in Develop mode, it displays the settings as you previously left them. You can revisit your processed images at any time to adjust the previous settings or restore to its original state.

Restoring Your Image Back to Its Original State

To Restore the Original Image in Manage or View Mode:

Do one of the following:

  • Control-click one or more images and select DevelopRestore to Original.
  • Click Edit | DevelopRestore to Original.

The settings button is located at the top right side of the tools pane.
