Menu
Instead of choosing 'Restore default layout' I mistakenly choosed 'Store current as default layout', so my current layout (which I don't want to use) is set as default.
Now I cannot go to original layout anymore. Is there a way to reset the layout to its shipped value?
I'm on intellij 12.1.1, on Windows7.

Back up your settings and restore the defaultsFrom the main menu, select File | Manage IDE Settings | Restore Default Settings. Alternatively, press Shift twice and type Restore default settings . Click Restore and Restart. The IDE will be restarted with the default configuration.
If you have saved a window layout and wish to revert back to that layout, select the “Window” menu, choose “Apply Window Layout“, then select the layout you wish to revert to.
The main toolbar with buttons for opening and saving files, undo and redo actions is hidden by default. To show it, select View | Appearance | Toolbar.
Layout stores the position and state of the tool windows, you can change it back how you like it and store it as the new default.
There is no GUI to reset layout to the IDE default, but the configuration is stored inside the project directory in ./idea/workspace.xml file. When the project is closed you can delete <component name="ToolWindowManager"> node from this file.
