Default Settings is an extremely helpful feature of any operating system. Reason being is because default settings are the original settings that is a standard the computer can operate CORRECTLY by. Altering settings for your use is at your own risk, but if anything ever gets out of place or anything doesn't function properly due to a change or graphically default settings resets it to the program standards that at most cases are operational to users. To make it all short, if users need to reset options or forgot/messed with a computer setting, default settings make it helpful to correct those problems! Hope this helps!
