If your VLC player is showing a strange behaviour and you want to fix it, then reset the VLC preferences in the preferences of the application.<br>
 
 
 
Go to '''Start Menu''' -&gt; '''VideoLan''' -&gt; "'''Reset VLC media preferences'''" <br>
 
 
 
You should restart VLC then. If VLC doesn't want to start, you have to delete VLC's configuration file. This file is created by you, so if you want to know the exact location of it, change the available options in VLC and save the new configuration.
 
 
 
There is now created a new configuration file in your user directory. So the precise locations of the configuration file depends now on the type of your operating system.
