Restoring your signature

Start by going to your sent items folder and locate an email that you sent with your email signature on it previously.



Highlight and copy your email signature from that email.

Start a new email message in Outlook to access the signature tool. 



Once in the signature tool select new and choose a name for your signature.  Paste your signature into the field at the bottom and then select your options for when your signature is automatically added to new emails or replies/forwards on the right.  



Your signature should now be restored and should show up on emails according to the settings you selected.
