# Restore a Shopify theme asset

> Restore an individual theme asset file like a Liquid template, CSS file, or JSON settings without affecting the rest of your theme.

You can restore a single asset file without affecting the rest of your theme. This is useful when you need to undo changes to a specific template or configuration file.

<Info>
  **Prerequisites**

  * At least one theme backup version in your backup storage
</Info>

## Find the asset

Open **BackupMaster** from your Shopify admin and go to **Backup Storage** > **Themes**. Select the theme that contains the asset. Scroll below the theme card to see individual assets, then click the one you want to restore.

## Compare and restore

BackupMaster shows all versions of the selected asset. For code files, it highlights the differences between versions so you can see exactly what changed.

</Frame>

Select the version you want and click **Restore to this version**. Only the selected asset is updated — the rest of your theme stays unchanged.
