Hi, on Windows, the preferences are stored in the registry. If you run Regedit, you should be able to find it under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, and Java or Javasoft or something like that, I don't remember exactly. I'm not sure if you can easily delete the parts of the registry relevant to JabRef, but if so, it would be regenerated with default preferences next time you run JabRef.
