Explanation
The goal is to recover from corruption that occurred at 3:20 PM, meaning the administrator needs a snapshot taken BEFORE that time - Snapshot 1. The correct workflow is to open Snapshot 1's Details to review its restore points (application-consistent crash-consistent points captured within the snapshot window), then Clone rather than Restore. Cloning creates a copy of the VM from the snapshot without overwriting the production VM, allowing the administrator to validate the recovered data before committing. A direct Restore (options B and C) is destructive and irreversible - best practice is to clone first, verify, then restore if confirmed correct. Snapshot 2 (options A and B) would be taken after the corruption event and would contain the corrupted files.
