Restoring Original Settings
What do you do when you encounter a PC problem?
If it’s a software dilemma, chances are is that you’ll have your antivirus scan the program’s folder first. If the check turns out negative, then the next thing that you’ll probably do is delete it and just install a new copy. While this is one way of solving the problem, there are other ways by which you could bring that software back to tip top shape without wiping it off your hard drive.
If the virus check is negative, then there’s no file corruption involved. A probable reason or explanation for the problem is setting modification. There are times when we accidentally change the setting of our programs. You shouldn’t worry about this, though. Almost all applications have a back-to-the-future button in order to undo the errors that you’ve committed. I’m simply talking about the “reset” button, in case you’re wondering.
There’s one drawback in clicking this button, though. In case you’ve deliberately made some changes in the program, you’ll lose those modifications. So you have to go through the settings again in order to tailor-fit the program according to your preferences.
