Some comments, depending on exactly what you want to do:

If you want to keep some customised stuff, but alter others back to defaults - locate the prefs file and edit it.

If you want to dump everything and start afresh - locate the prefs, bin them, re-open wings (wings will provide a new set)

If you’re unsure of what you’ve done / altered - Help -> Defined hotkeys will display what the (current) situation is - and it might (also) be an idea to keep / save the prefs elsewhere - ‘just in case’ whilst you’re messing about, for ref. purposes?

Re finding prefs - mine are: Windows -> Application Data -> Wings3d -> Prefs

Am using /26 btw

I´m using 22c and i dont know where i can find the prefs file and how its named. It cant be in the install dir because when i deinstall and reinstall wings the changed hotkeys stay the same.

<< cant be in the install dir >>
No, it’s not - that’s why I gave the route / path for mine (using ME)

<< how its named. >>
Strangely enough - preferences :slight_smile: … have you tried searching on this?

If you tell us what OS you’re using, then someone (else) using the same might be able to help?

Gotta be there somewhere …

Another thought - depending on how many keys have been altered, it might be easier to just re-alter / re-assign them back to original tools.
Use Delete to get rid of ‘your’ binding, then Insert to re-bind to original (default) one.

It’s unlikely there’s any difference (for these purposes) between 22c and 26, btw.

In my case, trying to ‘sort out’ a car…
