Exit proof preview?

My cat walked on my keyboard and now every time I edit a photo I'm asked if I want to save it as a proof. How do I get out of this mode? Thanks!

    Your cat has put you into Soft-proofing mode. To get out of that, press "S", or uncheck the Soft-proofing option in the Toolbar (press "T" to show the toolbar).

    SO funny. Literally the exact same thing happened to me! My cat walked on my keyboard and it was driving me  nuts!

        You are in softproof mode.

        So, whenever you make any develop edit changes Lightroom will ask you if you want to save it as a proof.

        The keystroke 'S' in the Develop module toggles the image in or out of the softproof mode, so in the situation as described above pressing 'S' should exit the image out of softproof mode.
