How to reset Visual Studio debugging options to default?

In Visual Studio 2015 Community, if I click Debug->Options I get these controllable options:

Also, after I click Debug -> Windows -> Exception Settings I get these:

I am currently experiencing bizarre step-over behavior and other odd behaviors during debugging - for example some exceptions are being caught and others are not.

Instead of isolating the particular option and twiddling with it, I'd rather just reset all of the above options to default settings. However, I do not see how to achieve this. Can you someone please explain how to reset them back to defaults?

Launch Visual Studio 2017 (may be same with 2015) Menu

-> Tools

-> Import and Export Settings...

-> Select 'Reset all settings' radio button

-> Next

-> Select 'No, just reset settings, overwriting my current settings' radio button if you want to reset VS to a fresh install settings

-> Choose 'General' or setting you want to restore to.

-> Finish
