Stuff like window position, toolbar positions and visibility, filter settings, custom view columns and groups, etc. It\u2019s a handy tool if you find that you\u2019ve somehow \u201clost\u201d one of your toolbars or have managed to create a custom filter setting that is causing issues. Some people \u201cclaim\u201d that they have missing or deleted entries when really they are just hidden due to a setting. It might also be helpful for users who at one time had multiple monitors set up with DayNotez on the second monitor and now find that DayNotez starts up \u201coff screen\u201d with a single monitor.<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">What doesn\u2019t get \u201creset\u201d. Good question. Mainly the user specific settings (like the list of users that DayNotez Desktop knows about) and registration codes that are already entered. Also any setting that is normally saved in the DayNotez data base itself such as category colors, etc. (Older releases of DayNotez Desktop used to keep color settings in the registry itself instead of with the data. If you are still using one of those OLD releases of DayNotez, yes, this tool will wipe out your color prefs also\u2026)<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">Keep in mind there is no \u201cundo\u201d once you hit that \u201cClear Settings\u201d button. Nothing should get \u201ccleaned\u201d that isn\u2019t easily redone via the preferences and a bit of window resizing and column setup.<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">If you need the tool, you can download it from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.natara.com\/public\/DNSettingsCleaner.zip\">HERE.<\/a><\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">I hope to also get a chance to put together a database tool sometime. The intention is to allow you to move your data file, add and remove users, and possibly combine\/import databases. That tool is a bit more work, but something I think more people may find useful. Since the work was about 90% complete on this tool, I went ahead and polished it off.
