Recovering from previous versions

Hello Anyone,
I am designing a desktop CNC, just had a crash, after restarting I open the recovered file and notice that the base plate of the Z axis that carry the spindle is now missing. I didn't save this version yet because I am trying to check if the light bulb indicator is maybe off but can't find the body or component. I am now trying to recover from previous versions, I know for sure I saved many versions, infact the lost version is 168. I know I can just redesign but would rather some step by step instruction how to open or recover from previous versions. The old version of A360 seem to have had all working copies, (A360 redesigned website is very slow and now I cannot see my files unless I enable WebGL) I am not sure what to do. I have one other person from Autodesk linked to this project but hate to annoy because he seem to be a very busy man. There are no pictures because I am trying to keep it private. How can I be sure requested help comes from autodesk employees an not just anyone on the forum.
Thanks

Hi Zephyr958,

 

Thanks for reaching out to us. It sounds you want to review the previous version and promote it if necessary. We have added the design history related functionalities in the Data Panel. (Please refer to the gif below for details.

 

We can also access it from the new UI of A360, but my favorite is from the Data Panel.

Thanks Nicolas,
This is an excellent example of what help should look like, beside this being the solution. I also discovered that this problem (crash) was more than likely cause by my graphic card struggling to handle a very large file. It seem like the graphic card revert to dropping some features, I recently notice lost color and low memory warnings.
Thanks again
