Easy configuration reset

A new command has been added to the Help menu: Help > Reset Configuration.

This resets your Audacity configuration, preferences, export settings and toolbars, to default settings.

Advice Be aware that this command acts immediately with no dialog and no choice of actions or chance to abort.

Undo is not available for this command.

User presets in Effects, Generators and Analyzers are left untouched, as are any Macros you may have created and plug-ins.

Please see Reset Configuration for further details.
