Can I undo an automator workflow?

Hello - I just completed an Automator workflow to resize a large group of jpgs. After I ran the workflow I realized that I made the images too small. Is there anyway to undo this, i.e. restore the images to their original sizes?? (oh please, oh please)


Thanks for any help!

You should have seen this message when you set up the workflow.

If you answered [Don't Add] no copy was made. Unless you have a backup, the original image was overwritten.

Thanks for your response. Sadly, that message did not pop up before I ran the workflow. I guess at some point the reminder may have been set to not appear again- though I don't recall doing that at all. Well, it appears I've lost 4 hours of work (!) but I guess I learned that I need to go back to change the warning message settings (presuming that is possible).


Thanks for the help.
