If you run a Windows Vista or better operating system (excluding Home Editions) then you have an option you may not have noticed before called "Show Previous Versions". It shows up in various applications like Notepad:

It will show prior versions of the current directory you are in:
From there you can open previous versions of solutions, projects, files, etc. and do whatever you want.
