Navigation: Working with Nx Witness > Playback in Nx Witness > Advanced Archive Search Tools > # Viewing Archive from Deleted Cameras |

When a camera is been deleted from the System, access to its footage is lost. To make such footage available again you the index that maps the System to physical storage location must be restored – see "Restoring Archives".

After the archive is restored, the deleted camera will be displayed in the Resource Tree. Though it will be marked offline it is possible to navigate through its archive.
