µVISION: RECOVER FROM CORRUPTED SCREEN LAYOUT

Information in this article applies to:

• µVision Version 2
• µVision Version 3

QUESTION

My µVision screen layout appears to be corrupt after playing with the software and moving all windows to different places. The same thing also happened to me once after a system crash. Is there a way to restore the default screen layout?

ANSWER

To recover from such situations, you may delete all registry entries for µVision by using the following procedure:

1. Use Start — Run — Open: REGEDIT to open the REGEDIT registry editor.
2. Depending on the µVision version select HKEY_CURRENT_USER -> Software -> Keil -> µVision2 or HKEY_CURRENT_USER -> Software -> Keil -> µVision3 and delete the complete registry key. µVision will then restore the standard screen layout.
