Reset all message boxes

Resets all message boxes to their default state. For example, if you selected the Don’t show this message again check box in any message box, clicking this button will reset all message boxes. Once you click this button, it becomes inactive until you choose not to display a message box in the product.

Use short Last Modified date format

Displays the short date format, mm/dd/yyyy hh:mm AM/PM, in the Open File dialog box, and the Environments Detail panel. This is the default format. You can clear this option to display the long date format, day, month, date, year hh:mm:ss AM/PM.

Default file editor

Lists file editor options, such as:

• Edit in Developer Workbench canvas
• Edit in Text Editor
• Edit in Windows registered tool

Note: The Edit in Windows registered tool is only visible if the file type you are accessing has been associated with a Windows application.

The file editor used determines which context menu options are available and controls the default behavior for double-clicking and right-clicking files.
