redo

Take another shot

To redo something is to do it again, usually because the first attempt was unsatisfactory: The contractor had to redo the entire bathroom.

As a noun, a redo is a second attempt or renovation: The kitchen is due for a redo.

In computing, redo reverses an undo command, restoring what was just removed.
