Restoring all settings to default.

Post by Johansons522 »

I would like to know if there is an option in Hard Disk Sentinel Pro latest version (5.70) to set all settings back to factory default, just as when I first installed your software. I experimented some adjustments with settings and want to reset them all back to default to avoid any wrong triggers and false alarms. Is there any easy way to do this if any? If not, it would be nice to have an option with one click to set all settings back to original ones. Thank you.

To restore the settings to defaults, please do the following:

1) completely close Hard Disk Sentinel by File -> Exit
2) open the folder where Hard Disk Sentinel installed, which is by default: C:\Program Files (x86)\Hard Disk Sentinel
3) delete the file HDSentinel.INI which stores the current settings.

After you restart Hard Disk Sentinel, the settings/preferences reset to factory default values. This keeps all statistics, logs, license etc... just clears the settings.
