Post Cleanup Tool triangles??

Here is a picture of my character model after using the cleanup tool. Everything was quaded but now looks to be a bunch of triangles. Im sure this is to check for quads.. but now I am having the hardest time getting it back to quad view. If that is what its called. Thanks again in advanced!

Seriously though if you don't want to triangulate your model do not use mesh -> cleanup. You can use Mesh -> Quadrangluate that will help with some though I don't think believe it will convert your current model back to quads. Like I said see if you can undo back far enough.

If you can't undo I'm at a loss for a quick fix but to avoid future problems you should install mmmmtools https://mmmmtools.celestinestudios.com/ watch the how to video and use the autoback script its nice for big mistakes.
