meshsmooth Posted October 9, 2003 Share Posted October 9, 2003 How do you reset ALL the settings as if it was a fresh install? After going from 6.1.114 to 6.1.148 now mantra will not pop up and render any thing so I decided to uninstall and reinstall Houdini but it remembers all my settings including the ones that seem to be the problem so I wanted to reset ALL the settings as if I was starting from scratch. Any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deecue Posted October 9, 2003 Share Posted October 9, 2003 If you keep don't uninstall it first and go to reinstall over top, the houdini install should detect that you already have it installed and should have a repair function i believe. That has fixed things for me in the past. hth, dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edward Posted October 9, 2003 Share Posted October 9, 2003 Do a search for the directory houdini6.1 on your computer. It gets created under what you have set as your HOME environment variable. On Windows, however, it defaults to be under your TEMP environment variable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edward Posted October 9, 2003 Share Posted October 9, 2003 Oops, forgot to mention that you should try removing your houdini6.1 directory (after backing it up). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
