Reset Photoshop to Defaults
Posted April 11, 2006 – 9:58 am in: Technology

Well today while using Photoshop it was acting weird, so I wanted to reset everything back to the defaults. I didn’t know this before, but this is how you do it:

Right after starting Photoshop (don’t wait for the the splash screen), press and hold Alt,Control,Shift on a windows system. On a Mac press and hold Option,Command,Shift.  A window will pop up asking if you want to delete the current settings.
