How to redo in excel

Answer

To redo in Excel, you reverse the last undo action. Redo restores the most recent change that was undone.

Methods to Redo

1. Using Keyboard Shortcut

   • On Windows: Press Ctrl + Y.

   • On Mac: Press Command + Y.
     This immediately re-applies the last action that was undone.

2. Using the Ribbon

   1. Go to the Quick Access Toolbar at the top-left corner of Excel.

   2. Click the Redo button, which looks like a curved arrow pointing to the right.

   3. The last undone action will be restored.

3. Right-Click Method

   • Right-click on a cell where you want to apply the action again.

   • Choose Redo from the context menu if available.

Notes on Redo

1. Redo works only immediately after an undo action. If you perform another action after undoing, you cannot redo the previous change.

2. Multiple actions can be redone sequentially using repeated presses of Ctrl + Y (Windows) or Command + Y (Mac).

3. Redo is particularly useful for formatting, deleting, or moving cells when changes are accidentally reversed.

Example

• You delete a row in Excel.

• You press Ctrl + Z to undo the deletion.

• Press Ctrl + Y to redo the deletion and restore the action.

This method ensures efficiency when working with large datasets or repeated changes.
