How to: Cancel Basic UI Changes and File Handling Decisions

You cancel you basic UI changes and decisions for handling of files and automation objects by opening the Reset User-Specified Settings window from your Role Center.

As basic types of UI personalization, you can change the size and position of any window, the width of columns, and the height of column headers, and you can change the sorting of data in columns. For more information, see How to: Make Basic UI Changes.

You also perform a basic type of personalization when you select whether to run, save, or cancel external files by default and whether to allow automation objects by default. For more information, see How to: Specify How to Handle External Files and Automation Objects.

Note

You perform your main UI personalization in the Customize window. The Reset User-Specified Settings function does not cancel changes that you make in the Customize window. For more information, see How to: Cancel UI Personalization.
