"Restoral" is a real word?!

Yes, it is. Apparently, I've slept right through this one. It's recognized
by every on-line dictionary known to man, with the possible exception of
the OED, and gets 167,000 raw hits.

I came across it just a few minutes ago when, after re-installing an app, I
got the message, "Restoral complete."

Youneverknow.
