# Restore users

:::warning Deprecated
Soft deletion for users has been deprecated. The `Restore()` method is no longer available because users can only be hard-deleted. See [Delete users](https://www.pubnub.com/docs/chat/unity-chat-sdk/build/features/users/delete) for details.
To recreate a deleted user, use the [Admin Portal](https://admin.pubnub.com/) or the [Unity SDK's App Context API](https://www.pubnub.com/docs/sdks/unity/api-reference/objects#set-user-metadata) with the same user ID.
