Getting Back Shadow/Highlight’s Factory Defaults
Don’t ever be concerned about experimenting in Photoshop CS2’s amazing Shadow/Highlight feature—mess with the sliders all you want, because you can always get back to the factory-default settings, even if you’ve overridden them by saving your own defaults. You do this within the Shadow/Highlight dialog (under Image, under Adjustments) by clicking on the Show More Options checkbox. Then, hold the Shift button, and you’ll see the Save As Defaults button at the bottom of the expanded dialog change to the Reset Defaults button. Click it, and the factory defaults are back, baby!

Reset a Dialog
If you are working with any dialog that has an OK and a Cancel option, you don’t always have to cancel out to get back to the original state of the effect. If you press-and-hold the Option (PC: Alt) key when you are in a dialog, the Cancel button will turn into a Reset button. This will give you a chance to try the effect again without having to leave the dialog.
