Reinstate or reset somehow (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

restore

'reinstate' is the definition.
(synonyms)

'or reset somehow' is the wordplay.
'somehow' indicates an anagram.
'or'+'reset'='orreset'
'orreset' with letters rearranged gives 'RESTORE'.

(Other definitions for restore that I've seen before include "Repair, put back" , "Bring back; renovate" , "Bring back, reinstate" , "Make good, reinstate" , "Refurbish" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
