How do I ensure that different versions of files are being saved on my continuous protection server?

I have a Continuous Protection Server running and a File share that is continuously backed up to the CPS.

 

When I added a test text file CPSText.txt to my file share. I went to restore on the Continuous Protection Server and was able to select CPSText.txt. However when I edited the file to say "version 2" as its contents, I only saw the latest version on my CPS Server.

 

How do I make sure that I am able to restore any version of a file using Continuous Protection Server.

 

Both servers are windows 2008 Standard Server R2 x64.

Snapshot of backup destination is created at regular intervals. This can be configured by going to properties of the backup destination. Everytime a snapshot is created, a new version of changed file is generated. You can use CPS console to restore a different version of a file.

Please mark it a solution if this is useful.

Thanks
