My team is using Vault 8.0.1 and we ran into an issue yesterday that had us wanting to rollback an entire folder to a previous version. We were able to accomplish it by checking out the folder and overwriting it with the prior version and checking it back in, however, when we were looking into how to accomplish it we came across this post:
http://support.sourcegear.com/viewtopic ... 102#p75011
The post mentions that Vault 7.2 would include the new Working Folder Rollback feature. Looking at the help documents in Vault 8.0.1 I found documentation for the feature under 'Vault Standard Client Help' -> 'Using Vault Standard' -> 'Folder Versions' and I followed the steps to use it but I am not seeing the 'Working Folder Rollback' button on the Folder Versions dialog box. What I found odd, though, is that the documentation for the feature is NOT included in the help documents under 'Vault Standard Client Help' -> 'Reference Guide' -> 'Folder Versions'. This appears to be the same help topic as above except that one includes the a description of the feature and this one doesn't.
I poked around in the admin configuration and the client options to see if there was something I needed to enabled in order to get it working but I didn't see anything. Is this feature actually there and if so, how do I get it to work?

Re: Working Folder Rollback feature
I'm sorry to say the feature never made it out of the early design stages due to problems with shared files outside the context of a folder. I'm uncertain why it was mentioned in a post as we don't want to set incorrect expectations, but I'll be sure to correct that.
At this time [Vault 8], rolling back to a particular version of a folder still remains a manual process. However, this KB article - http://support.sourcegear.com/viewtopic ... 13&t=12594 - should assist in the steps required for the changes.
