Reset User-Specified Settings

You can personalize the appearance of the RoleTailored client, or decide what to do when the Microsoft Dynamics NAV server requests permission to run unknown software on your computer. The "Reset User-Specified Settings" dialog box gives you the opportunity to undo these personalization's and decisions.

User interface

This category covers changes that modify the appearance of pages in the RoleTailored client. You can specify which elements (such as fact boxes and lists) are shown in a particular page, and also specify the size and position of elements. Click "Reset UI settings" to restore all pages to their original default layout.

Automation objects

An automation object is a software component that can run on a Windows computer. The Microsoft Dynamics NAV server may request to run an automation object on your computer. The first time this happens, the client prompts you for permission to run the object. If you choose “Always allow" or "Never allow,” the client does not prompt you on subsequent occasions when it receives a request to run an object of the same type. You can only revisit this decision by clicking "Reset Automation decisions". The next time the server wants to run an automation object, the client presents the original three choices.

Client file access

The Microsoft Dynamics NAV server may request to run or download a file to your computer. The client offers three choices: Run, Save, or Cancel. It also provides a checkbox, which is selected by default: "Always ask before opening this type of file." If you clear this checkbox, subsequent files of the same type are automatically handled in the same way as the original. You can only then revisit this decision by clicking "Reset file handling decision". The next time the server wants to run or download a file, the client presents the original three choices.
