Excel Undo Redo

This lesson is part of Excel · All levels

Summary

Undo cancels the last step, while Redo repeats it again if you change your mind. Excel keeps the history up to about the last 100 steps so the big mistake can still be recovered. Both buttons are available in the Quick Access Toolbar and can be accessed quickly via Ctrl+Z and Ctrl+Y.
