Reset to default condition AutoCad 2005LT

Reset to default condition AutoCad 2005LT

(OP)
Can anyone advise on how to reset to all the default settings an installation of Autocad 2005LT? Is there a "*pref* file that I can delete and it would be rebuilt the next time Autocad is re started?  We have a seat on a common computer and too many "experts" have screwed this up so bad that I would like to reset to a default as new condition.  
Un installing and then re installing is a big deal that I would just as soon not try, the originals are all locked up in a vault and taking anything out requires more signatures than I care to think about..
Thanks for your time
Ralph

A trick you can use is to log on as a new user to your machine. Open Autocad (should open with base settings), export the profile and then import that profile as yourself.

That would work... except the LT version does not support multiple users... If it would I would have my own profile and the heck with the others.
But thanks anyway

Installed that and it seems to have done the trick...
