Unofrtunately, it is not easy to edit manually. Since I am trying to restore the orginal layout of the Source and Messages panes side by side, which I cannot restore using the mouse, I am going to try to download the lyx. conf file from the GitHub and overwrite mine.

The dialog will tell you where the user directory is. I think he is talking about the GUI settings. Their location is OS dependent. On Windows, the settings are stored in the system registry in HKCU\Software\LyX, while on cygwin and unix systems in the user home dir in ~/.config/LyX/lyx.conf. Not sure about Macs. -- Enrico

Windows 7 - Where does Lyx stores my user interface configuration?
Hi. Following this post ( http://article.gmane.org/gmane.editors.lyx.general/84619), I am looking for the location of the file where Lyx stores my user interface configuration under Windows 7. I tried to find it by opening Lyx, selecting a new toolbar to be displayed with View / Toolbar, closing Lyx and looking for the files just modified, but I could only find a file named "session" in my user directory (~\AppData\Roaming\LyX2.1\) containing cursor locations in recently opened files. Do you know where the file containing the user interface location is? Thanks in advance, Gilles
