How to restore a previous version of an Item in a list

Version History on a list

Unlike a Document Library, where it automatically stored the last 500 versions of each document, it only stores 50 by default in a list. You can either increase it or disable it altogether. It is worth noting that you cannot totally disable version history on a document library, and 100 is the minimum version you can have there. Here is a summary of how version history works on a list:

• Versioning enabled by default, set to last 50 versions

• Versioning can be disabled if need be

• No minimum number of versions, max is 50,000

• Minor versions available as well, just like with document libraries, but only if you enable the Content Approval feature
