Description
Use this macro to find your user setting configuration files, that is,
system.cfg
user.cfg
These files can be renamed in order to reset FreeCAD's settings back to their original defaults. This can sometimes fix problems you are having with FreeCAD.
You should exit FreeCAD before renaming the files, and then open FreeCAD again afterwards. If renaming the files did not solve the issue you were having you can delete the new files FreeCAD created and rename the original files back to their original names in order to restore your previous settings. You can also safely delete the renamed files once you are certain you no longer need or want them, but it is recommended to rename them instead of deleting until you are certain they are no longer needed.
Note: The macro does not rename the files or make any changes to your settings. It merely finds the location of these files, copies that location to the clipboard, and (attempts to) open the folder containing these files on your computer using the default file browser.

Description

Use this macro to find your user setting configuration files, that is,

  • system.cfg
  • user.cfg

These files can be renamed in order to reset FreeCAD's settings back to their original defaults. This can sometimes fix problems you are having with FreeCAD.

You should exit FreeCAD before renaming the files, and then open FreeCAD again afterwards. If renaming the files did not solve the issue you were having you can delete the new files FreeCAD created and rename the original files back to their original names in order to restore your previous settings. You can also safely delete the renamed files once you are certain you no longer need or want them, but it is recommended to rename them instead of deleting until you are certain they are no longer needed.

Note: The macro does not rename the files or make any changes to your settings. It merely finds the location of these files, copies that location to the clipboard, and (attempts to) open the folder containing these files on your computer using the default file browser.
