What is versioning and how can I enable versioning on s3 bucket?

Versioning provides facility to preserve, retrieve, and restore every version of overwritten and deleted objects in your bucket if versioning is enabled on that bucket. You can enable this feature by selecting "Versioing --> Set" from right click option of bucket.

If you enables the versioning on bucket, then all versions are maintained by Amazon S3.
If you do not enable versioning on bucket, then Bucket Explorer maintains the versions for overwritten/deleted objects in System Buckets .
