How to set back the default settings of Compiz

Hello!

I'm having problems with some settings I changed with the Simple CompizConfig Settings Manager.
After a while, I've not been able to set back all those options. What's the way to do it?
I'll appreciate any help. I wouldn't like to reinstall the system since I just installed it yesterday.

Hi,

a really quick way would be to un-install Compiz including the ".compiz" folder in your /home, you can simply press crtl + h and it will show hidden files so you can delete it!!. Once done, restart and re-install and then re-start once again!.

Thank you for your help. I just run:

gconftool-2 --recursive-unset /apps/compiz

It didn't set back all the default options but at least let me set up some options that I had not been able to do earlier.
