The command "sudo timeshift --restore" is used for restoring your system to a previous state using the Timeshift tool.

Timeshift is a backup and restore utility in Linux that creates periodic snapshots of your system's files, including system files, user files, and settings. These snapshots can then be used to restore your system to a specific point in time if any issues arise.

When you run the command with "sudo" (which stands for "superuser do"), you give it administrative privileges, allowing it to make system-level changes.

The "timeshift --restore" part of the command is what actually triggers the restoration process. It instructs Timeshift to restore your system from a previously created snapshot.

By running this command, Timeshift will search for available snapshots and allow you to select the desired snapshot to restore. Once you select the snapshot, Timeshift will revert your system files and settings to the state they were in when the snapshot was created. This can be helpful if you encounter system errors, software issues, or accidentally delete critical files, allowing you to roll back your system to a stable and functional state.
