It would be best if you deleted your settings file. That will reset you to the newest, best version of the settings.

Just open the settings file, then select all the text, hit Bksp or Delete, and then save the file. When the file's totally empty, we'll generate a new one for you.

Or you know,

Do your settings look like this?

{
    "globals": {
        "defaultProfile": "{0caa0dad-35be-5f56-a8ff-afceeeaa6101}",
        "initialCols": 200,
        "initialRows": 65,
        "initialPosition": "0,0",
        "wordDelimiters" : " ()\"'-:,;<>~!@#$%^&*|+=[]{}~?\u2502",
        "confirmCloseAllTabs": true,
        "keybindings": [
            ...
        ]
    },
    "profiles": {
        ...
    }
}

Then change them to look like this:

{
    "defaultProfile": "{0caa0dad-35be-5f56-a8ff-afceeeaa6101}",
    "initialCols": 200,
    "initialRows": 65,
    "initialPosition": "0,0",
    "wordDelimiters" : " ()\"'-:,;<>~!@#$%^&*|+=[]{}~?\u2502",
    "confirmCloseAllTabs": true,
    "keybindings": [
        ...
    ],
    "profiles": {
        ...
    }
}
