Reset preferences from VLC

Using VLC within preferences

If you can launch VLC, in the preferences dialog, from the Tools menu, you can hit the 'Reset preferences' button.

NB: This might not solve all your issues, all the time; so if you still have issues, then see the rest of this article.

Reset preferences and cache

Windows

Using the shortcut in the start menu

If you installed VLC properly you can delete the preferences and cache by simply opening the shortcut you can find in your start menu:

All programs > VideoLAN > Reset VLC media player preferences and cache files

Deleting the files manually

Open the explorer and type %APPDATA% into the address bar and hit enter. This should lead you to the AppData folder of your user.
