How can I recover history from a deleted device?
Does any kind of procedure affect the other devices and sensors?
Best regards,
Stefano.

Hi Stephano,
If you delete a sensor / device in PRTG the historic data of the device will be purged as well. The only way to retrieve the data is to restore the historic data from a backup. You'll also need to copy an older version of the PRTG Configuration.dat to the default directory
C:\ProgramData\Paessler\PRTG Network Monitor
to restore the configuration of the object. Please bear in mind that all configuration changes done in the mean time will be lost.
Best regards
