Are the users familiar with MS-Office products? If so, I'd try "undo".

Subject: synonym for "rollback"
Hi friends:
The software has a rollback mechanism. In other words, if the
process fails,
all the steps that were performed are reversed, leaving us with the
original
state (the one we had before the process was invoked).
However, the users of the document are not computer people. What can
I use
instead of "rolling back the process"?
