site and service i checked that can not restore by recycle bin,
so i try authoritative restore,
many tutorial shows restore to original location, i wonder, i just want to restore a single object, but restore to original will not cover all objects or not?
and what different with checkbox "perform an authoritative restoer of AD files" ?
thanks

    hi, please ignore my question above, i studied more about authoritative restore,
    i just tried authoritative restore in a single AD (only 1 AD in domain)
    i deleted a set of old CA service objects(1 standalon root ca, 1 ent ca, 1 web enrollemnt) in site and services, and leave another set of working CA service objects

    1. i tried to recover 1 old CA object(authoritative), and because of it is just 1 AD, other objects leave (non-authoritative), the service has error
    2. i tried to receover with "perform an authoritative restoer of AD files", it works

    i wonder is there a different between authoritative and non-authoritative even in 1 AD envirment, i know that is for replication , but 1 AD no replicateion need
    i also wonder it need gpupdate /force in all server or not? i trying 1 without gpupdate, but trying 2 with gpupdate
