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

HY202510149941
HY202510149941 1 month ago

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,

    I can't believe the Search Panel is missing after floating! It's wild how a simple bug can throw everything off. I was just browsing through some posts on the Cadence Community and found that removing local files is essential for getting back to a working state.
