Here, the RDMS will give you the option to //Keep the current permissions// or also //add permission of a new location//. If you are **restoring the file to its original location**, you can simply choose to **keep the current permissions**. If you wish to **restore the file in a new location**, it is probably best to **add the permissions of the new location** as well.
