Search Panel missing in OrCAD X Presto after floating - Need help with UI reset

HY202510149941

Hello,

I am reporting a UI bug in OrCAD X Presto where the Search Panel has disappeared and become completely inaccessible.

Problem: After using the Search Panel as a floating window, it vanished. It is now unresponsive to keyboard shortcuts, menu toggles, and even a full software reinstallation. It appears the UI layout data is corrupted and persisting in the local configuration files.

Request:

  1. Please provide instructions on how to hard-reset the UI layout to factory defaults.

  2. Which local configuration files or registry paths should be manually cleared to perform a "clean" reinstall that wipes previous UI states?

Best regards,

Parents

    This behavior strongly suggests corrupted UI layout data stored in local user configuration.
    A proper fix would be to fully reset the UI by removing all local OrCAD X Presto user profile/configuration files (AppData) and related registry entries, as a standard reinstall does not clear persisted UI state.

    Pls advise the exact files/paths that should be deleted to perform a true clean UI reset.
