You can reset IntelliJ IDEA's settings by deleting or renaming the configuration directory. This directory is usually located at the user's home directory in a hidden folder (e.g., `.IntelliJIdea[Version]`). Back up your settings before deleting or renaming the directory. Then restart IntelliJ IDEA; it will create a new default configuration.
