A friend recently had me set a number of tings in photoshop to macth his settings…. and I find them annoying. I’d rather go back to the original settings which were pure as teh driven snow when I first loaded the program.

Is there anyway to reset things to the original defaults without taking the program off and reloading it again?

It’s called trashing or resetting prefs:

From Photoshop Help:

To restore all preferences to their default settings:

Do one of the following:
* Press and hold Alt+Control+Shift (Windows) or Option+Command+Shift (Mac OS) immediately after launching Photoshop or ImageReady. You will be prompted to delete the current settings.

* In Mac OS, open the Preferences folder in the System Folder (Mac OS
9.x) or Library folder (Mac OS X), and drag the Adobe Photoshop 7.0
Settings folder to the Trash.

New Preferences files will be created the next time you start Photoshop or ImageReady.
