Accidentally Trimmed Important Part of Zoom Recording - Need Help Restoring Original

I was downloading a Zoom recording from Zoom.us and decided to trim the video. Unfortunately, I accidentally trimmed out the part I needed and kept the part I didn't need.

Is there any way to undo this trim or restore the original, unedited recording?

I haven't been able to find an 'Undo' option, and I'm really hoping there's a way to recover the original file.

Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated!

I found it! Click on the actual video in the recordings again and you will see this at the bottom: Trimming of this recording was completed, ...date....time Restore

Was this ever fixed? I just did the same thing and cannot find anywhere to restore it! Even though I read it could be done. 😞

I swear I do this every time I trim my videos.  I always cut off the part I want to keep.  I don't know why it's so confusing to me.  UGH!  I think you have to wait to see the Restore button AFTER the trimming is complete.  I'm waiting now, and crossing my fingers.  Thank you for your post Dey!
