There can be times when knowing how to reset your desktop settings in Sage 200 can be a benefit. Whether you have lost access to a column or are struggling to see something. Knowing how to reset your desktop settings in Sage 200 is easy to do with our short video guide.

The video shows you how to:

  1. Navigate to Tools, this is the cog in the top right hand corner of Sage 200.
  2. From the menu options, select Preferences.
  3. This will display the following options, where you would need to select ‘Reset Desktop Settings’.
