Time needed: 3 minutes
In this section, I will show you guys how to get everything back like how it’s supposed to be. Even if you just lost something and you want to get it back. So let’s check this out:
To reset Photoshop back to its factory settings, all you need to do is close the Photoshop app
Then, you need to open up Photoshop again and hold three keys: ALT + CTRL + SHIFT (For Windows) or OPTION + SHIFT + COMMAND (For Mac), immediately after you click to start Photoshop
And if you did it right, a window should pop up. This window is asking you if you want to delete the Photoshop setting files. If you click on YES, Photoshop will delete the setting files, and without a settings file available, Photoshop will use the factory defaults.
Remember that you cannot undo this action. So, once you click on yes, Photoshop will start, and everything will be back to its default settings.
This second method requires you to find the preferences file. The locations are given on this screen now inside of those locations you will find something called the Preferences file and you have to move that file or delete it.
So that’s how you reset preferences in Photoshop, and that’s what to do when Photoshop isn’t acting right. I hope this content helped you, and if it did, make sure you guys that I can. So thanks for reading, and I’ll see you guys my next one.
