# Uninstallation & Reset

## Resetting options to default

Under the *Manintenance* options submenu, the plugin can be reset to the default options via clicking the *Reset all options to defaults* button.

The reset means:

* All plugin options **will** reset to defaults (caching, compatibility, index table and statistics options)
* The search instance options **will not** be changed
* The database tables, contents and the files **will not** be deleted either.
