4 Best Ways to Reset Settings App in Windows

While using Windows, you may occasionally experience problems like the Settings app crashing, lagging, etc. If you’ve been facing similar problems, you should reset the Settings app.

Note: Resetting the Settings app will remove various settings and restore different options to their default values. So, if you use custom settings for any Windows feature, back up the important files.

1. Reset From the Start Menu

We’ll use the default Start menu to reset the Settings app on Windows.

1. Open the Windows Search box and type in Settings.

2. Right-click on the Settings app and click App Settings.

3. Scroll down and click on the Reset button.

4. On the confirmation pop-up, click Reset.

If you run Windows 10 version 21H2 or later, you can use PowerShell to reset the Settings app.

1. Open Windows Search and search for Windows PowerShell.

2. Right-click on Windows PowerShell and select Run as Administrator.

3. In the PowerShell window, enter:

Get-AppxPackage *windows.immersivecontrolpanel* | Reset-AppxPackage

4. Reset the Settings App Using the Batch File

2. Open the Text Document and paste the following lines in it.

@echo off
cmd.exe /k PowerShell -ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted -Command "& {$manifest = (Get-AppxPackage immersivecontrolpanel).InstallLocation + '\AppxManifest.xml' ; Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register $manifest}"
exit
