* *Save Task* \- Select this check box to save the Task in the Task Scheduler.
* *Enabled* \- Select this check box to enable the File Restore.
* *Description* \- Enter a name you can use to recognize this Task apart from other scheduled Tasks.
* *Recurrence* \- Define the schedule and frequency for the new Restore Task (Now, Minutely, Hourly, Daily, Weekly, or Monthly). If you want to run a Restore immediately, leave "Now" as the default setting.
For more information on this topic, see [Recurrence Types|Recurrence Types#cdp_server_user_guide_280_tasks__824].

*Restore Files Task Options:*
* *Overwrite Existing Files* \- When enabled, any existing files or directories with the same name will be overwritten even if they are newer.
* *Encrypt file data over network* \- Encrypts all data in an encrypted tunnel over the network during the Restore. This option is enabled by default. Disabling this option can provide a small speed increase to File Restores.

* *Restore to Alternate Location* \- Specify a path on the Host to Restore the files to. The complete path and directory structure of all selected files will be created under the path specified here. If the specified path does not exist, it will be created.
* *Restore to Alternate Host* \- Select an Alternate Host to Restore the files to. Select the Host from the drop-down menu of another Host you have Admin rights on. Alternatively, you can enter the Host Name or IP Address of the Alternate Host. The Host must be running the Righteous CDP Agent and be configured to accept requests from the CDP Server.

{note:title=Notice} If the Alternate Host is specified using the text field, the Host's CDP Agent of the Host must be in Disaster Recovery Mode.
