While Animate is closed, delete everything inside the Configuration folder.

The folders might be hidden.

 

These are the paths to Config:

on Win:

C:\Users\YourUserName\AppData\Local\Adobe\Animate YourVersion\YourLocale\Configuration
on Mac:

HD\Users\YourUserName\Library\Application Support\Adobe\Animate YourVersion\YourLocale\Configuration

 

Also delete everything in Roaming:

on Win:

C:\Users\YourUserName\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Animate\YourVersion\
on Mac:

HD\Users\YourUserName\Library\Preferences\Adobe\Animate\YourVersion\

the safest way to reset preferences for any adobe app is:

uninstall the app including preferences per https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/help/uninstall-remove-app.html

If you want to reset your preferences to default settings:
In the Preferences dialog box, click Reset to Defaults or press and hold Control+Alt+Shift (Windows) or Command+Option+Shift (Mac OS) as you start Animate.
