Recover previous version

Hi there, I'm making a practice site and I changed the themes a few times today. I want to go back to the theme I had yesterday but its giving me strange errors and now it looks different than it did yesterday. Is there a way to recover the version that I had yesterday? Thanks!

What's the errors? What could have changed? If you know how to find the theme again, you could always redownload it.

Unless you installed a plug in to back up your changes I don't see how you can go back. The best you can do is remove the theme from your themes directory and re-install it.

If it is on a server, it should have an automatic backup. You can uninstall the themes you don't want, want reinstall the one you want. What kind of errors are making?
