How to reset 3ds max 2014 to its default settings?

I want to reset my 3ds max 2014 to its default state. I searched for it a lot but I couldn't find the solution. I read some post where it stated the deleting the 3dsMax.ini file will reset it to its default state but I couldn't find that file on my computer. Please help

It's in a hidden folder. Configure the Search to include hidden files & folders.
