Reset to Default Settings not working

On MacOS, Reset to Default Settings is not working correctly. Here is how to replicate.

  • MacOS. cd to ~/.config. mv ParaView ParaView-backup.

We now have a perfectly prestine Paraview.

  • 5.10.0-RC1. Close the splash screen.
  • Close ParaView.

You will have two files in .config/ParaView. They are: ParaView-UserSettings.json and ParaView5.10.0.ini.

  • 5.10.0-RC1. Close the splash screen.
  • Reset to Default Settings. OK.
  • Close ParaView.

You will still have ParaView5.10.0.ini in .config/ParaView. This is a bug. Further, this shows in the File/ Open dialog, if a user wants to add a directory to favorites. This directory will stay around even though the user has tried to Reset to Default Settings.

To upload designs, you'll need to enable LFS and have an admin enable hashed storage. More information
