Intellij restore deleted file (new file not in version control yet)

Question

I deleted a file in InteliJ and want to restore it.

What I tried:

• Edit -> Undo won't help here because I had to many actions after my mistake of deleting the wrong file

• File -> LocalHistory does not show my change

Answer 1

My mistake was to select File.

You have to navigate in Project to the folder or base project folder where the file was deleted from.

Projects. Click on the folder -> Local History -> Select change and Revert

Now the file is recreated.
