Don't despair, its only software. The answer is in there somewhere.
Those settings files have the extension ".set". They are kept by default in 
a folder within the Nikon   scan folder. For example,
Nikon scan\4.0\Settings (assuming XP here)
Maybe try manually deleting them before or after doing an uninstall?
Good luck cheers
Hoppy

Reset the factory defaults before I did a software reinstall. 
Nothing.....Now, I kick myself for ever getting caught up in this 
new-age bs. Where can I find another good  Focomat? :-)
