You can restart the workspace to get the original file(s) back.

First, save (download) any work you have done that you want to keep. Then go to the Workspaces page and locate the one you are using. Click on the trashcan icon on the right side to delete the workspace, and confirm when you get the pop-up.

With the workspace deleted, you can go back to the course and "Launch Workspace" again. When it comes up, it should have all the files you started with in their initial states. Then upload any work you saved and continue with the course.

Adanan,

You may also simply close workspaces, refresh the lesson and launch a new workspace.
If you do not have any workspaces available, you can delete one and then create a new workspace.
You will be able to start with a fresh index.html page with the original content.
I hope this helps and if you have any other questions please feel free to ask!
Tina :)
